I always find the first tablescape of the New Year to be particularly challenging. I don’t mind the month of January, but it tends to be rather bleak and uninspiring. I chose to pull a few elements from a recent holiday table, mix it with whites representing the dusting of snow that we have on the ground at the moment, and pair this with crystal and candles. I like the look.
The centerpiece of this table consists of two of my favorite pine trees, now
strung with tiny lights. At the base of them are three ceramic houses, each
illuminated with a tea light candle. You can find something similar here.
At either end are a pair of crystal candle holders that my husband bought me years ago, each holding a pair of 10 inch white taper candles.
Snowflake candle holders that I got from Crate and Barrel years ago provide a
bit of sparkle and light at the center of the table, and at each place setting.
The darling house salt and pepper shakers are by Magnolia Home and were purchased a couple of years ago from Target.
The scalloped, chippy, wooden chargers are from Pier One, and undoubtedly you have seen these before, on my blog, and the blogs of many others. My only regret about this purchase is that I only bought four of them.
They are topped with Maison Versailles Blanc Amelie dinner plates and appetizer plates, separated by a simple gray napkin from Pottery Barn.
The "cabin" flatware is from one of my favorite places (as you all well know), Cabela's!
Half moon, pressed glass salad plates add a bit of frostiness alongside the
plates, and are perfect for serving salad.
Comfortable, delightful, and wintry, this table is certain to be appreciated by your guests.
