Wonderful Happy New Year Table Punk!
I thought those dishes would look good and they do!The black tc, flatware, beaded placemats, black chargers and gold underplates accent the dishes beautifully
Your Mom's anniversary clock is the perfect center piece
i love the streamers and black garland you used on your chandie.
The hutch looks fabulous too.
But what I love the most is TJ staying up to help you bring in the New Year.
Happy New Year to you and your family.

Nana and OA were right....those dishes work perfectly for a New Years
Table. The color theme of black -silver and gold is very elegant.
Made me smile that you used your Mom's clock for your CP....great
for 'The Countdown' . Your over head streamers add a very festive touch...
It's a shame there was no one there to party with you....oh
wait...I'm wrong....there's TJ ! Love how you dressed her up for the occasion....hat, noise maker and streamers! So cute.
Don't feel bad ..I was in PJs by 8....and DH and I ordered take out!
We laughed as we remembered the 'party animal' days of New Years
Eves past! Lol
Enjoy your New Year's Day with your family...

Thanks Nana and Jane for all the sweet comments. DD is working today. The company we sold to and she stayed on with as a district manager only believes in closing for two holidays a year.(Christmas & Thanksgiving) DS, DSIL and DGD came down for awhile and just left to go get DH's plow truck.

Jane, LMBO, 'Don't feel bad ..I was in PJs by 8....and DH and I ordered take out!
We laughed as we remembered the 'party animal' days of New Years Eves past!' isn't that the truth tho! I don't believe I had one drink last year!

Punk, you are the quick change artist!! Those dishes are wonderful for this table and TJ is just too cute!

I haven't even bothered to finish my last Christmas table and you have created 2!! Both equally stunning!

The colors are fab and the chandy looks great! Another beautiful and artistic table!

I did not have to work today, but was out of gas, so watched the parade on the Hallmark channel and then finally got moving and created a silk floral arrangement from some of the goodies I picked up at clearance sales.

It will be a CP for one of my tables at the ladies luncheon next Nov., but will use it now for Snowman décor after I put away Christmas!! I have picked several things to use for my hostess gifts too!

It started snowing here and was quite cold, so did not venture out today, LOL

Happy New Year,
Candy

Kind of nice & cozy to stay inside on these cold Winter nights (& days) ~~ so I'm glad TJ stayed up with you, punk...she looks just so good in black!!! I stayed up, too ...but hubby slept thru it...fun to remember back to the 'party days,' like Jane mentioned!

Using your DM's clock is just a wonderful idea ...the the clock itself for winding down the old year & welcoming the new! I still What china closet is that one!!! You changed out a whole china closet again ...girl, send me some of that energy, will ya! Wow, it's lovely w/blacks & silver! & of course, your candlelight ...I will always think of your decor as 'warm candlelight.' TFS your New Year's Eve, punk! ~~hugs, Jeanne S.

Wow! You are right on time with a clever table setting. I'm still struggling to put away my Christmas table things.

Candy, do I dare say, I've already started on my Snowman table? I think it's great to be able to stay indoors when it's
cold outside. Enjoy your scores!

Jeanne, that is the same hutch I've had that I picked up for
$25 from one of DD's neighbors. Remember, the one that
the top shelf broke in when Roweena was hanging out? So
glad you enjoyed another ts.

F2BH, I have such a busy life style that I have to do things
fast and furious most of the time to keep up. Hoping to
spend less time at the office this year. If that happens I
will be elated. Just loved your Christmas ts!

Thanks ladies for all the sweet comments. :)Punk
