Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to you all. I hope you've had a fantastic Christmas break and are ready for an amazing year ahead! Our house has been crazy...full of good food, good friends, family time and of course...nerf gun wars (my boys bought the girls guns for Christmas!) so it is all out war now!! So now the madness is over we are chilling before the kids go back to school and life returns to normality...when the decorations come down and the house feels so bare...I'm sure I'll find something to decorate  though!! But before we leave Christmas behind I thought I'd share a few piccies of my Christmas table as promised...I finally decided to go with mercury glass ornaments, glittery beaded twigs and silvery foliage for a very wintery table! You'll have to excuse the bare plaster wall backdrop...my dining room is my next project!!







 




I'm looking forward to sharing lots of wedding loveliness with you this year so make sure you come back soon!x

Christmas Inspiration #12...Roses are Red...

Only a few more days to go....hope you've got lots of lovely ideas for your home this year! In case you are still looking for more inspiration, I used some gorgeous red roses here to create a couple of  different table settings using a mixture of containers that I have at home. Red roses look gorgeous with silver vases and goblets...


Green hypericum berries add a lovely natural touch for a Christmas table.. 




 
Why not use some ivy from the garden to dress your napkins and place cards..





For a really simple and effective Christmas table, why not collect some green bottles and containers for your roses...it doesn't need to cost a fortune!!






Use natural wood blocks to create your own place card holder...I just used some red wire, inserted it into the wood and curled it at the top to hold your card..





Have a great week!x
