My Chistmas Dinner Tablescape

*SIGH* is everyone else as busy as I am? Baking, Cooking, Wrapping Presents, Cleaning, Hiring a plumber because the laundry room washer overflowed and at the same time somehow backed up into the kitchen sink, Oh, well- that last one was probably just me lol... what a day! Oh! and while all this has been going on ~Plum Perfect~ has been setting up shop BUT- that is another post so you'll just have to wait! :) 

Today I bring you my Christmas Dinner Tablescape which we will be sitting down to enjoy on Saturday at 1pm. I am linking with Susan at BNOTP for Tablescape Thursday. Please visit her here http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com  for many beautiful tablescapes!


These beautiful Christmas Dishes were given to me by my husbands grandmother and I have enjoyed using them every year. 



Sparkled gift boxes have been placed in the bowls for some added fun. They are from Hobby Lobby. 


We have 2 types of place card holders but they are both from
 Pier 1.



This little dessert dish was purchased at Goodwill for $1.50 and the 2 serving knives came from a lawn sale for .50


The cutting board and knife came from a Thrift Store and was $3.00

The centerpiece was put together by my wonderful mom with items that I already had.

This little dish was full of candy however someone (ahem... darling dear) has been swiping them on their way past it every day.    :)

The beautiful stemware that was a weekend treasure that I paid about .60 each for!!! 

A thrift store find that was only $1.99. I just LOVE her!



Thank You for stopping by and have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
