What a lovely centerpiece and it goes perfectly with your pretty china. Isn't it great when our relatives pass things on for us to enjoy? I can understand how you feel about the candle holders, they are really nice. Tired of seeing your tables? Never! I think it is wonderful that you can come up with so many "themes" and have all the pretty goodies to carry them out. Keep em coming!

Dream, that's a beautiful wintry table, could almost be a New Years table also with all the glitz!

Lovely. You seem to be in a Victorian mood lately. You family must be enjoying your special dinners.

OH that is a pretty and sparley table! Very cool, wintery and so holiday celebration! Very nicely done! Love that the touches of blue are just dotted here and there, clever to put the silver in with crystal glass.

You simply cannot go hide in the corner! I've lurked long enough to know if your name is attached, it's going to be beautiful and creative.
I looove this one and think it's wonderful that you have many older pieces that have been handed down (or in case of the candle holders, shared).

You are kidding, right, dream??? Always enjoy reading your posts & in awe of your tablescapes & pics! This one is absolutely beautiful...and I love that your Mom gave you the dishes that you used! Centerpc is very lovely & the both displays of candles are so pretty! Those "star" ones really call to me...I have some plain star ones I use in Christmas decor...and I love how you used the mirrors under them! TFS your talent & pics! Jeanne S.

So pretty! That is one of my favorite combo's and you've done it just right!

just lovely dream as always!!
I like the touch of blue that looks so nice with your crystal and silver..everything sparkles.
Your DM's china is really very lovely, and works so well with all your accessories like the hurricanes
(which to remind you aren't yours) !! lol...
The centerpiece you created with them is just perfect.
Never tire of your tables..they keep getting better and better...and a pleasure to see.

I love blue and silver! How beautifully you put it together for this tablescape.

You better not go sit in a corner! I'm waiting for the next one!

Sure you can't talk Mama out of those hurricanes? LOL

Kim,

Another beautiful table and I agree with all the others comments. Bet DGM is smiling down from above knowing you are using her cruets. I can see why you want to keep the candle holders that belong to your mother. Suggest she buy you some for your birthday and maybe she'll give them to you.LOL

Thanks so much for posting another table for all of us to enjoy.

Everyones right, no corners for you. I love the light blue with white and silver and crystal. The little snowflake candles are great as well as the centerpiece. I believe those are the same Gorham hurricanes that I have in green (my Christmas table). We have about 3 inches of snow here today and that would be perfect in my sunroom. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you ladies! Ya'll are the bestest!!

I told my mother today that she wasn't getting her hurricanes back. I think my mother threatened me! LOL!!!

OK, I got it. Buy DM a new set for her birthday or MD and maybe she'll give you the ones you already have.LOL Punk

I also like your centerpiece! What a fantastic piece! Does sparkle and shine like jewels!

WOW, so beautiful.
Don't you even THINK about corners and slowing down..we'd just have to haul your butt right back here ASAP.

hugs, Karen

I typed a response here yesterday and it appears to have gotten lost :^(
I really like your tablescape, Dream! I can totally see why you're hating to give your mother back those crystal hurricane candleholders . . . they're drop-dead gorgeous!
