Recreating....

Happy Saturday to you!  I hope wherever you are,  you are staying warm and dry!  The rain has slowed here for awhile at least, though it is expected to return on Sunday.  Our temperatures are more seasonal, after a record high temperature of 76 degrees on Thursday.

As promised, here is an attempt at recreating my table setting from Advent By Candlelight.

Ten places were set at the table.

I chose a green tablecloth this year, a new purchase from Aldi's for only $10.00!  The china is Noel by Salem, the crystal is Lady Anne by Gorham, and the flatware is Chateau by Oneida.  I used the wooden dough bowl for the centerpiece.  The Husband cut off holly from our bushes, and I arranged it in the bowl with the candles sitting in the foil-lined bowl.  They are cranberry-scented candles, and they gave off a wonderful aroma when lit!  The napkin ring is actually a ring designed to trim a taper candle holder!  Favors were silver bells which I found at a local antique/craft store.

This is a busy UMW week-end.  There will be more about that in a future post.

This is also a busy sports week-end.  The Vols will play basketball today, and the game is televised.  Later in the day will be the SEC Football championship game between Missouri and Auburn, also televised. 

Thank you for reading.  I really appreciate your comments.
