My Vintage Christmas Table
How are you all after the Christmas festivities? I had a wonderful time making my Vintage Christmas Table this year, using China, Glass, Tablecloths and trimmings full of memories and the past – some from my Mother In Law no longer with us; some from my 99 year old Grandma; my two dear friends no longer with us; and lots I have collected over many years from Charity Shops and Garage Sales. That’s how Christmas should be don’t you think? Full of love and memories.
Here is how it turned out. I would love to hear what you did for your table this year. Please comment and share 🙂
Now on to New Year!
