Simple Tablescape

My decorations this season are very simple since DH and one son will not be home and the other son and I will be traveling.


I went to the fabric store and bought one yard of a sueded cotton and folded in thirds to make a runner and cut greenery from the yard.

placed pine cones and ornaments in this tall vase, added the candlesticks and tall tea light holders


plus two of the vases I made in the previous post


a bit of 'ice'

and battery operated lights



It looks so pretty at night with all of the candles lit, just hard to capture with my camera.
Why not take a little trip over to Susan at Between Naps and the Porch and see what others are doing on their tables? Another fun place to visit is Julia at Hooked on Houses for her holiday house tour.

    Grand candlesticks!

    I really hope your Christmas will happy, even if being on the road.
    Traveling is sometimes a enjoyable way to spend the Holidays, away from all the hectic preparations.

    On Sunday is Lucia Day in Sweden and also my husbands birthday.....our family tradion is a house full with friends and family for the smorgasbord. Meaning a marathon in cooking!

    All the best,
    Ingela

    You gave it your special touch! Your way with things is just wonderful and aren't you clever...How on earth do you do the battery thingy. Can you buy battery operated lights?
    BTW I am officially copying your gorgeous wreath on your banner!

    Your comment was so true. I see it in print all the time. Even in this small town that I live in, the most sucessful designer here is clueless. It kills me !
