Happy New Year, Christmas Dinner Tablescape

Happy New Year Sweet Friends,

Can you believe it??  It's here.....2016

Sometimes it is just hard to fathom

that another year has come and gone.

I have heard it said many times from

older folks, that the older you get the

quicker time flys,  and I have to say,

at 63+ yrs, that I am finding that to

be very true...........lol

We had a very quiet relaxing New 

Year's evening, watching "Miracle on

34th Street", and  our fav TV show,

 Heartland. Such a good movie. 

We have seen it before but it has been 

so long that we weren't sure we had

 seen it before, and really enjoyed it, and 

we always really enjoy Heartland, will be

 sorry when this series ends, course, 

we will probably rewatch it.  lol

This is my last Christmas post for the

year............I promise!!  lol

These pictures are of our Christmas

Dinner table.

It is the vignette I had on my Living room

coffee table, but embellished it with some

lil package sprinkes and candles.

Red chargers, white plates and red and green

plaid........ a very traditional color palette

on a white background.  Love how it made

 the colors pop.

  a nice overview.

Used my simple yet modern corelleware, 

and wedding silverware, and lovely

green glasses that belonged to a sweet

elderly neighbor lady over 40 years ago. 
 They are definitely vintage goblets and 
I have always loved them.  I have seen
 a few in blogland as well.  

This was lil darlings place setting, and

this was her first time to sit at the big

table rather than in the high chair, and

boy, did she like that.............she did

amazingly well, and didn't get a spot

of anything on the tablecloth and she

was feeding herself.......

Here is a side view of the

 centerpiece.

Guess you can tell I used a

 Christmas Ball

and Gift package theme

From the opposite end of the table.

I just folded the napkin in two, then fold it
 in two again, and laid it over the plate and 
tucked each end under the chargers, then
added the bread and butter plate.

This is the backside of the centerpiece

with Soft Omni lighting affect

A look down the table

.  We put lil darling right on the end 

between Mom and Grammy, in case
she needed some help.......lol

With a Gradient Map affect

With a Posterized affect

Christmas balls are always 
a great choice for any decorating
at Christmas time, as far as I
am concerned............

With Photcopy affect

Well, there you have it the last of the 

Christmas Pictures............

Hope you have enjoyed the Christmas

Season and all the fun things others

have shared on their blogs, it has

been like a feast for the creative

mind................

Glad you were able to come by

today and hope the rest of your

Day will be a great one.

Again..... Happy New Year,

and May 2016 be a year of 

Happiness, Healthiness, and

Hopefulness with a lot of 

Peace thrown in to the batch.

New Year Blessings for 2016
