The dining room is decorated much more simply than years past. I am not hosting a dinner this year so I did not set the table.
I created a simple centerpiece on the table using my vintage berry crate filled with snow and three small flocked trees.
A silver revere bowl filled with pine cones and cranberries sits on a grain sack in the morning light.
The trees did not come flocked, but I used a couple of the easy methods found here.
Some pine cones and bits of greenery were added to the ironstone in the hutch.

Happy Friday and have a super weekend!
I love your simple dining room Christmas decor! Honestly, with so much eye candy to look at, a few thoughtfully placed sprigs of green and those adorable trees in the center of the table is all the room needed! Merry Christmas, my dear friend! xo

Kim, I like the simple look. Greens with the white ironstone makes a beautiful statement. You did a fabulous job.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I just love looking at all of your ironstone! I still have not flocked the trees that I intended to, nor have I shopped for anyone! But I'll take care of all of that tomorrow (that song is filling my head right now!)
