Gold Deer and Tablescapes

Today is Day Two of the Christmas Ideas Tour.

You will find a tremendous amount of Christmas and Holiday ideas for your table.

This year I will be working on a table that is a bit different

from the past years.

However, there seems to be a constant in my Christmas tablescape

and that is my gold deer.

A tablescape from a few years ago.

Then I realized that I used these same deer for last year’s table.

Although my tablescape this year will be of a different nature/theme

you can count on the deer being there!

I have a plan for my table with all of the items gathered on the table

ready to create the tablescape.

However, I shall wait to gain more inspiration today from the ladies

who are presenting their Christmas/Holiday tablescapes.

So go and visit these wonderfully talented bloggers today.

I was on the tour yesterday with my Christmas Mantel.

    I have silver deer I reuse. Love them. Your gold deer are gorgeous. Most of my decorating is done ( advantage to a small house?) but still have one more area to tweak. Love the bit you’ve shown; can’t wait to see more!
    Hugs,

    Your tablescapes are gorgeous, Shirley. The golden deer adds such a touch of elegance! I also loved your Winterberry table too. The white owl is adorable! Wonderful ideas- thanks for sharing them.

    These are beautiful! I need to dig out my Lenox Holiday. It has been three years since those dishes have seen the light of day!

    I’m in love with the little Christmas trees… I have them all over, but I do like the look of the gold and the fruit tress…
