I love holiday decorating-
the lights, the greenery, the birds..
the cooking
never my highlight
(eating is a whole other story!!)
never my highlight
(eating is a whole other story!!)
but
the table decorations make my heart all a flutter-
lots of planning goes into my table decor -
even to the placement of the food
So, for my recent holiday party, I kept it simple
Cream was my color of choice-
not beige, not white or even linen-
a really rich and creamy cream-
if you know what I mean!
The cloth was cream, the roses were a rich, luxurious cream
even the candlesticks became creamy(although they began a shiny brass-ugh!)
The crystal vase, holding the creamy roses, was the true highlight of the table.
I put the roses in a smaller glass vase inside a larger vase-
I then added fresh cranberries between the layers of the vases-
oo la-loved it!
It was in the midst of crystal stars all on a mirrored base-
reflecting into the mirror, the crystal glimmered in the dimly lit chandelier,
that dripped in white berries and miniature crystal balls...
that dripped in white berries and miniature crystal balls...
Well, take care, gotta fly- Claire
