Pink and Pearl Formal Christmas Tablescape

Pat set this week's table using a color that is not often associated with Christmas - pale pink - and accented it with pearls. The inspiration for the table was our Karen Didion "Rose" Santa with his fur and pearl trimmed pink coat. Dinnerware is Mikasa "La Rose" and  Mikasa Rose "Color Spectrum" chargers.





"La Rose" fine china has delicate pink roses on a gray, pink, and gold band around the plate. These were a gift from Pat's daughter several years ago.



The flatware is "Plantation" by Oneida - from our Mother years ago
Every time we use these goblets, I think of our great-niece. They are one of her favorites.
Pearl napkin rings are from Pier 1 years ago


The detail on Santa is incredible

Lots of Presents Christmas Tablescape

This week's Christmas tablescape features Pier 1's "Winter Wonders" dinnerplate in a simple fun setting with lots of Christmas presents as the centerpiece attraction.




Flatware is Kate Spade's "All in Good Taste."


We found these fun place mats at Tuesday Morning years ago
The Santa face napkin rings are part of our Mother's collection - she had the "tablescape/dish disease" long before us and taught us well.


Thank goodness for Aleene's Boxmaker craft tool that I bought years ago.......all you need is card stock and lots of time on your hands.
