Lenox Winter Greetings Table

For our final Christmas season table, Pat used Lenox "Winter Greetings" china (which features different birds on holiday greenery.) It makes a simple but elegant table.

Flatware is "Broadway" by Argent

We found the glassware on a sale shelf at Pier 1 a few years ago - less than $1.00 each

One last look

Tartan Christmas Tablescape

I originally called this week's post "Tartan Plaid" but was quickly corrected - in Scotland (home of the "tartan") plaid is actually a blanket or large piece tartan material. So, duly corrected, the table this week mixes tartan and black to create a different Holiday table.

Even Santa is dressed in tartan
