ANOTHER FUN CHRISTMAS TABLE

A lot of times when we have guests..especially if it's for a game on TV

or an extra special movie,

I set a buffet style table in the living room.

My favorite ICE KING SANTA CLAUS

always works wonderfully as a centerpiece..

I love him so much, I wanna marry him..

I love MARK ROBERTS FAIRIES and I am the proud owner of two.

If you came to my CHRISTMAS OPEN HOUSE, 

you have already seen the both of them.

This beautiful CHRISTMAS FAIRY was given to me by

ANDE a couple of Christmases ago..

She has a private blog now. :((

I miss you, Ande.

Cutest little salt and pepper from WALMART clearance, last year.

They almost look like they are in a Christmas forest...

The GREEN flatware was on the clearance table

at DOLLAR GENERAL..

$2.00 for the 4 place settings..

Of course, they are very cheap  inexpensive and may not last through an entire dinner...:(

Cutest little CHRISTMAS PLATES...

The beautiful  VINTAGE green goblets were my mother's.

Bless her heart, everything really nice that she wanted, she always

had to either put them on lay-away

or just buy a few at a time.

I remember one year for Christmas, we gave her 2 ..

I am guessing that was all the money WE had....:(

She was so proud when she finally got a set of  8.

Now, I have them but...

I sure would rather have my little mama than these ole glasses !!

While I was having breakfast this morning,

I took the time to thumb through some beautiful Christmas catalogs..

WILLIAMS SONOMA being one.

*huge heavy sigh.....

I found these ADORABLE

12 Days of Christmas plates..

I am sooo totally in love !

 I've never seen anything so darn CUTE !

Now, I would be LUVIN'

being able to set a casual table with these adorable dishes.

I had my post all ready and just  a few days before I was

ready to publish it,

I came across THIS table, set with MACKENZIE CHILDS COURTLY CHECK.

It took me 15 minutes to catch my breath and get up off the floor

and then she hit me with THIS....

MY COVETED DISHES...

BOTH SETS...

bwaaaaaaaa..!

HYPERVENTILATING  here...

;O)

I hope I don't forget to put

cookies and milk

out for MR. SWEET SANTA..

These store bought Christmas cookies are really good.

Not too sweet but...sweet enough.

Crisp and crunchy, if you want...

or

softer if you put them in a cookie jar.

I'm off to meet with my sweet friend, MARTHA,

for an ice cream soda

and exchanging of Christmas gifts...

...always F.U.N.

♥♥♥

MERRIEST CHRISTMAS..

I LOVE YOU ALL..
