It's very simple--just an oversized Margarita glass full of clear glass and pink glass marbles. It's sitting on a glass heart embedded with pink flowers.
It couldn't have been easier and it maintains the light airy feeling that I think it needed to for this particular table.
I could see myself sitting at this table and enjoying a scrumptious meal..bring it on! I have a question....is this table set like this till Christmas??
Yes,it is. It will be used often during December. I make DH eat in the dining room for most dinners to enjoy the Christmas ambience. We light up all the trees, light the candles and slice up the SPAM. :)
How nice that you eat in the dining room and enjoy all your beautiful decorations. I agree your centerpiece works perfectly! (I also love your little elves here, there, and everywhere!) xo
Zoey - you have been busy since I was last here!!!!
I LOVE all of your decorations - the trees and garlands and elves and everything else you've posted - beautiful!! Your tabletop is charming - the centerpiece is perfect. And I like the napkins - they do look like candycanes!
I can tell you had a lot of fun with all of this - it's wonderful.
Hmmm, perhaps I should send you a few SPAM recipes;Spam on the half shell for appetizers, Spamalot in Marinara for the main course and Spamalamadingdong for dessert!
Your tablescapes are always stunning, and I agree, one should enjoy the whole dining experience. After all, we eat with our eyes as well as our tastebuds.
I appreciate you taking the time and effort to leave a comment. I will try to answer any questions you have. Please note due to Blogger changing word verification so almost nobody can read it, I have had to change to no word verification and only allow registered users to comment.
I am so glad you stopped by to visit my garden. I garden in lower northern Michigan (zone 5) in far less than ideal conditions. I have too many pine trees, too much shade, too many rocks, herds of hosta-munching deer and rabbits who think my lilly buds are gourmet appetizers. I am by no means an expert in horticulture or garden design--just an amateur with a shovel and a passion. My garden changes daily during the summer and I will be updating frequently.
During the winter months, I blog about my favorite cold-weather hobby--quilting and just my everyday musings.
I hope you enjoy your visit, and that you will come back soon.

Hi Betty,
ReplyDeleteIs that a loaded question? LOL.
Yes,it is. It will be used often during December. I make DH eat in the dining room for most dinners to enjoy the Christmas ambience. We light up all the trees, light the candles and slice up the SPAM. :)
So that is what's being served up for dinner...think I'll take a raincheck! lol

LOL, Betty. I don't like SPAM either.
ReplyDeleteSusie, thank you. I feel like I work pretty hard to do it all, so I should enjoy it!
Kris, Yes, I have been busy. And you are right, I do have a lot of fun with it.
