Tuesday

White Christmas Party

I'm on a roll this week, I posted to three Christmas parties already and today I'm joining Cuisine Kathleen at her White Christmas Party! Click on her name for lots of white inspiration!
This beautiful white Nativity of the Holy Family was my inspiration for this white tablescape.

Kathleen asked that all participants use only white with maybe some gold and silver, so I used the pretty white poinsettias that I had already used in the vignette in the foyer picture on the blog banner.

I added the gold Noel (used in the table top Tuesday vignette last night.) A gold mesh scarf and gold ribbons and pearls were also included in the centerpiece:

The pretty white flocked apples and grapes also look pretty with the poinsettias.

Centerpiece:

Place setting:

Gold leaf chargers from Pier One about 15 years ago.
White dinner plates from Dollar Tree
Flatware from Tuesday Morning
Napkin rings from Ross
View from the top:
I'm happy about the way this all turned out,
I did not spend any money on this,
I only used what I already had!


I have so many "favorites" in my Nativity collection, this is certainly a favorite!
Nice details on the garments and the faces are very pretty!
I was racing against time trying to take the pictures quickly because the sun was moving to the table!
Just as I thought I had accomplished the task, I realized I had taken a ton of pictures without putting the crystal on the table!! Ack!
Instead of starting over (the sun was on the table almost!) I just took a few with the crystal, which does look prettier with the gold rimmed crystal (from Ross.)

You can see the sunshine in this one:
In the background is the small curio with the Table Top Tuesday vignette I posted last night.

I hope you enjoyed my White Christmas Tablescape.






Have a wonderfully blessed Christmas!

Katherine, Your ceramic Holy Family is beautiful. All the white poinsettias set such a pretty backdrop for it, as does the cutwork tablecloth. Love the simplicity of the gold with all the white- it's quite elegant. Thanks for coming by- I appreciate the visit!

I really like your white nativity. It is stunning and I like the way Mary is holding baby Jesus and have never seen another quite like it.

The gold accents are all beautiful - a wonderful tablescape.

Hello Katherine,
your white and golden table is so elegant and festive. And the Holy Family is really outstanding. Among the flowers the figurines look so stunning, that I didn't noticed at all, that there were no glasses set. I love this table.
Wish you a Merry Christmas.
Greetings, Johanna

Kathleen said...
