Christmas Table Decorating

Oh, I love this time of year! I personally don't care for the cold weather, but I love this time of year and all the fun, family, and parties it brings. I love decorating our Christmas tree, and every year I try to add some new aspect to the tree, whether it's jut a new ornament or a whole new theme. This year we don't have money to go with an entirely new theme, so I chose to just use the new "adds" I had gotten from last year. And I usually find my new "adds" after Christmas from the huge After-Christmas sales which are always so much fun. This year, I added red beaded garland, a few new ornaments, and white snowflake ribbon (last year I only had gold). I always love just staring at the tree:)!!

Last night we had our annual Ladies Christmas event at our Church and it was spectacular! I'm always so impressed at how the ladies in our church come up with so many creative themes for their tables. This event is an outreach event where women from the church host a table, come up with a theme and provide all the dishes/decor for it, invite friends for an elegant 4-course dinner, and then see an evangelistic production in the church afterwards. There were probably around 100 tables last night that women had decorated and I took a few pictures of ones that I thought were just great, although they really all were beautiful!

This was our table that a friend and I hosted-

These ladies made their napkins and the cloth in the middle-

Such a cute, girly table!-

Very nice and green, with a nativity scene in the middle-

Who would have thought to put the napkins UNDER the plates??-

Pretty pretty -

This one was the most creative- It was a spa table with all sort of girly spa treats:)

My favorite colors, red and gold-

This one was by far the winner to me...they went all out!!!

Simple but elegant-

This was such a beautiful event and I wish I could have posted every table! If you're looking for ideas to decorate your table for Christmas, take a peek at these works of art!
