Do you set up your table all fancy for your guests? Here’s a post I wrote last year on Christmas Table Decorating where settings range from traditional red and greens, to bold and radiant, over the top, fru fru designs. Have a read and tell me which is your favourite, I like the one pictured below best.
Here is a great look created by Maira Killam that shows what you can do if your lucky enough to have a fireplace in your home to adorn with Christmas ornaments. I especially love how she has added the Christmas balls into the garland with ribbon. No fear of them falling off by grabbing and curious little hands. (or less of a chance I guess!)
Read Maria’s post to see how she did this beautiful and colourful focal point.

From Fall….
To Christmas…
