Enchanted Christmas Woodland Tablescape

This year I decided to do an “Enchanted Woodland Tablescape” for the dining room table. I utilized my gold crystal deer and greenery and florals for the centerpiece. I placed birch branches in the center of the greenery that towered to the center of the chandelier. The branches were secured to the garland in the chandelier. Snowy acorns adorn the branches with glittered white string garland. I love the beautiful green pinecone inspired ornaments hung from the garland amongst the green poinsettias and white beaded twig garland.

My Christmas china is Lenox Holiday Tartan..I love all things fruit…Enjoy!

    Gorgeous centerpiece and clever way of tying it in with the chandelier. I love the Christmas china so much that I have the same pattern. Now sit back, relax and enjoy!

    Fabulous and your Lenox Holiday Tartan is my favorite too, even though I don’t have any, I’ve drooled over it each time I see it.
    Hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

    VERY pretty table!!! Your Lenox dishes are a fabulous starter element to a fantastic, blinged out Christmas woodland setting. Very clever and beautiful chandelier treatment, too! Those deer are my favorite!!! And your tree looks great in the background! I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

    I have enjoyed scrolling back through your Dec posts. Your home is decorated so beautifully, it must take a month to do it! I loved seeing this table with the Lenox Tartan. It is such a pretty pattern, and it is one of the 3 Lenox Cmas patterns I have. The first is the Lenox Eternal Christmas. Do you know it? It is discontinued for a few years now, but I have enough for 16, so that will do
    I am so glad you stopped by my blog so I could come over here and meet you!
    I am going to follow, I don’t want to forget where you are!
    Happy 2012! I will start to take down the decos after the Epiphany, that is our tradition.
