Evergreen Inspired Christmas Tablescape

 

Happy December, My Lovelies!  Are you having a nice Advent Season so far?  We started December in New Orleans, and it was so much fun visiting friends.  I feel very organized this year, and I'm planning to have more quiet time for devotion and Advent studies.

Today I'm joining fourteen other stylists for a Christmas Tabelscape Blog Hop Party hosted by Sweet Rita from the Panoply Blog.

Thank-you so much, Rita, for hosting these tablescape blog hops.

They're always so much fun!

If you're hopping in order, you just visited Patti's blog, Pandora's Box.  I want to thank you for linking over to my little corner of the internet.  I have been looking forward to this for weeks!

The theme for this tablescape in our dining room is "evergreen."  I was inspired by my new napkins from GreenRow.  I was smitten when I saw them on their site, and I ordered a set of them.  GreenRow is a brand whose parent company is Williams-Sonoma.

The cheerful napkins feature different types of evergreen trees on a jaunty background of contemporary chartreuse polka dots.

The plate stacks feature modern plates from Crate and Barrel.  I've had them for many years.

I decided on a living "evergreen" centerpiece planted in a vintage Annie Glass boat from San Francisco.

I chose a selection of ferns and white cyclamen.  I like the frosty fern because it looks wintry.

I also purchased a set of green glasses from GreenRow.

The fun evergreen wreath napkin rings are new, and they're from Hobby Lobby.

I also decorated the Welsh Dresser with candles, a flocked tree, and felt garland.

For to us a child is born,

    to us a son is given;

and the government shall be upon his shoulder,

    and his name shall be called

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Of the increase of his government and of peace

    there will be no end,

on the throne of David and over his kingdom,

    to establish it and to uphold it

with justice and with righteousness

    from this time forth and forevermore.

The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.

~Isaiah 9:6-7 (ESV)
