Today we are talking all things Christmas decor here and at
A Thoughtful Place. I thought I would showcase my plans for the tables that are going to seat 20+ people Christmas Eve. Clearly I will be adding more than the four chairs currently shows. I will also be adding a folding table (at least) but you can get the idea with what I am showing you here.

And you know there is always a "kid table." I'm not sure I have even graduated from this yet...
For the kids table I decided to go with more color since it's in another room that features red and green decor.

a different Christmas plate at each setting. my mom-in-law gives me a different one each year. |
I'm thinking about cutting out some burlap place mats since I have extra hanging around the house. But we will see if time permits that by Christmas.
Here are a few other details from around our house...

PS I printed the most adorable chalk board print from this girl's blog
here for FREE! Go get one for yourself. I plan on framing mine and adding it somewhere in the house...maybe even B's nursery? A-dor-a-ble.
So many gorgeous touches! Love the chandy in the dining room and the banister! I bet it was tons of fun decorating the new casa!
ReplyDeleteJust lovely! I adore the chargers!
