Christmas Dining Room...A Sparkling White and Shimmering SilverTable Centerpiece

*

*

Hello my friends...I hope that you're having a fabulous day!

*

Oooh...it won't be long now...Christmas is nearly here!

 I thought I would get one last post in before the big day...I still

 have lots of baking to do and a few more Christmas gifts to wrap.

 Are you ready for Christmas?*

*

Last week I shared some of the Christmas decor in my

 dining room...specifically my Christmas buffet. Today I thought I

 would show you what I did for the table centerpiece.

  I hope you enjoy!

*"Dreaming of a White Christmas...with a little Silver Bling"

Christmas 2010 Dining Room

*

*

*Christmas in my french country dining room.

*

 My dining room is done in dark red, olive green, and gold.

 This color theme works sooo well for Christmas decor!

*

This year I decided to do a white and silver Christmas...kind of

 a white "Winter Wonderland" with a little silver bling added!

*

*

*

I am really enjoying the sparkling white and shimmering silver Christmas!

*
*
*Christmas Table Centerpiece
*

*

*Oooh...see the pretty pine greenery? This beautiful fresh

 pine table centerpiece was a gift from my Mom and Dad and my

 sister and her husband...for Christmas! I just love it...and it smells sooo

 good! It is loaded with pine boughs and white winter berries!

*

I must confess...I added a few more pretties to this centerpiece as well...

*

white pearl berries
various white and silver ornaments

white mercury glass pinecones
*
*and...
*
*a silver soup tureen full of faux snow and jeweled
 mercury glass ornaments!
*
*

*

*

*

*

*

*I used three silver candleholders with white tapers, mercury

 glass (goblet shaped) candleholders, and mercury glass finials on

 each side of the pine centerpiece.

*

 A white table runner edged in silver sequins gives the table

 centerpiece a foundation. I'm not sure if you can see (in the first

 photos or not) that the table runner has a beautiful design of

 beaded embroidered snowflakes on each end.

*

*

*

*I love these silver reindeer place card holders!

*

*

*The Christmas Buffet

*

*

*Since I am showing the Christmas table centerpiece...

thought I would share a few photos of the Christmas buffet as well.

*

 If you would like to see more about how I put the decor

 together for the buffet...just click HERE.

*

*

*

I used a three tiered pedestal cake plate set for the centerpiece

 of the buffet. It's filled with all kinds of sparkling white and shimmering

 silver Christmas pretties!

*

*Here is a little Christmas vignette that I put together for the bar.

*

 This large bar area separates the kitchen from the dining room.

 I wanted to keep the same white and silver color theme going.*A special

 thank you to my dear, sweet friend Gloria from Happy To Be blog

 for the two beautiful glass candleholders...I love them, Sis!

*

 I filled the glass holders with various silver glittered ornaments

 and faux snow. Sooo pretty! A large white pedestal bowl is filled with

 more jeweled mercury glass ornaments! I wrapped the small white pillar

 candles in silver mesh ribbon for a little extra pretty!

*

*

*

*A Few More Photos...

*

*

*

*I thought these photos turned out really pretty.

*

*

*

*

*

*

*

*This photo was taken in the late afternoon.

*

 I thought the silver candleholders and mercury glass finial looked

 soooo pretty with the sunlight shining on them!

*

*

*

*And...there you have it!

*

  A Christmas table centerpiece dressed in sparkling white

 and shimmering silver! I hope that you enjoyed!

*

*

*

*Merry Christmas, sweet friends!

*

I hope that you have a wonderfully blessed Christmas
 with family and friends! I am so very thankful for each and
 every one of you...you bless me, inspire me, and gift me
 with your friendship!!!

Love ya'll!
