Please be sure to stop by Playing with Dishes, for some
Pre Holiday decorating ideals.
A night scene of my table.
As you can see I just gathered some pine from the yard
added a few pinecones I had handy as well as a few lights.
I used the bow planter For the top of my make believe
Christmas tree. Then I used ribbon from the top of the
center piece to the chargers to make it look a though
they were hanging. The red you see in the pine is
actually individual dressing dispensers with red tops
( I forgot to take a picture of them sitting out, pressure
from the teenager in the house to get this off the table
before her friends saw Christmas dishes on our table
in July).
I did cheat a little I am using the same green tablecloth
from tablescape Thursday with a red cloth on top and
the same silverware.
The chargers are from Hobby Lobby and I used the cut
crystal dishes again. Two red napkins and two green
napkins with gold napkin rings.
The little bow plate is a dollar store plate I bought
several years ago. The glasses are from Wal Mart.
see everyone Monday.

Great job of putting together a CIJ! I wish I had access to my Christmas stuff, but it's high in the attic, out of reach!

Oh my word, this is so pretty and it looks like you really have a tree. You did a beautiful job, Everything is just gorgeous. Hugs, Marty
I love the creative use of the pine! It looks like a tree. I had to laugh about your teen. My family gave up on me long ago. They live with Christmas music and decor all during July! We have even had a few groups of friends over for dinner and one for dessert all while using a Christmas table. They know that I am a Christmas nut. I often get Christmas items for my birthday---which is July 22.
Thanks for participating. I loved your table.
Nothing says Christmas like RED! Great job and wonderful photos!
Happy CIJ!

I'm back with another comment. I just posted two CIJ tablescapes and wanted to tell you since I said last night I didn't have one. I found some Christmas plates I had forgotten I had!
