Fireman Santa Tablescape

My sister has a wicked sense of humor - I say it often, so this week's table is no surprise. It's one of her "usual offbeat and hilarious" tables using a set of dishes that we bought several years ago. I chuckle every time I look at it.

Now this is a fun table.....complete with fire engines and "flame" napkins

Flatware is Noritake's "Decision" Primastone

No fire "call out" is complete without a fire hydrant nearby

A note to the family: Yes, that big box in the background is another order of dishes from Replacements. Don't have a coronary........it's going to be OK. I still have a little space left in the garage rafters.......

From the other end of the table

Originally, the table had a traditional Christmas tree........but not for long....not really Pat's "style"

Bread/Butter Plate - Black "Fiesta(ware)" by Homer Laughlin from Replacements

Flatware - "Decision" Primastone by Noritake (1973-1977) from eBay
Flame Napkins - Handmade by Pat
Santas - from our collection
Fire Trucks - from Ross over the years
