Christmas Tablescapes Part 2

17 years ago

This is the tablescape I did at work for the December birthdays (only one this month!). I went with a Christmas theme since his actual bday was Dec. 25th!

Silver and blue is a new combination for me. I had the trees, glass vases and blue tablecloth but bought the balls and placemats (put together to form a cross runner)at a local bargain store. The blue shell-shaped plate doesn't fit the theme but the colour went so well, I used it anyway!

It wasn't my turn to make the cake so a co-worker did that but I did bring the "Christmas Spirals" snack at the end of the table.

After the bday celebration, I took away those items and left this as the tablescape for December.

My co-workers were even "into" enough that they let me turn out the lights and create real "mood lighting" for their coffee break!

I should probably be at work today (took a vacation day)creating a new table setting for them now that it is January. I have a frosty winter one in mind....

You co-workers are so lucky! I can't imagine having that kind of setting for coffee breaks. I especially love the centerpiece. You can't go wrong w/ using big containers filled w/ ornaments.

I'd never personally use blue in a Christmas decoration for some reason (it's just me), but I really loved your table! The blue is beautiful and very striking witht he crystal and white! For a December birthday or New Year's table, I love it! Thanks for sharing it with us. You've got me lusting after those gorgeous blue plates now ;^P

Wow! Another pretty table. Bet your coworkers are impressed with this one. Love those crystal looking trees. What did you use in the bottom of the two vases? Sure looks nice. Luvs

Thank you one and all for your comments and compliments!!

My co-workers really do appreciate my endeavors to make the coffee room "prettier" and a nice place to "escape to". At our recent staff party, we had to write compliments/comments about each of our co-workers (anonymous)for a game we played and I got a lot of "Martha Stewart" type ones!

Luvs, there is faux ice chips in the bottom of the two tall vases. Thought it went with the icy looking crystal trees.
