Christmas Deorating

This post is more for my benefit than anything else. I have taken these pictures so that I will have them for next year when I am ready to decorate.  It will save time trying to figure out where I want everything to go.

 

First - The Christmas Eve Dinner Table

I used a plain white table cloth and tacked large red rick rack to each corner with a large green button.  It was easily removed when the dinner was over.

For the centerpiece I bought crystal candle sticks from the thrift store for $1.00 each and hot glued ornaments to them and tied a ribbon on each.

 

In the center of the candle sticks and ornaments I used a hurricane filled with Christmas greens, cranberries and a floating candle.

For the napkin rings I bought a silver bead tree garland for $7.00 and simply cut it and tied it off into 16 napkin rings.

And of course, a wreath on the back of each chair.

 

The Trees

The Living Room Tree

The Kitchen Spode Tree

 

The Grandkid's Room

 

 Peter Rabbit  Tree in The Sitting Room

I Started collecting these ornaments in High School

 

 

 The Snowman Trees in the Family Room

 

 With ornaments hanging from the ceiling above.

The Family Tree

The one and only real tree

 

Other Stuff

As you can see I use lots of ribbon.  Anything becomes a decoration if you tie a pretty bow on it.
