Got it all done just in time!

For the last few years my decorating has taken on more meaning. I start with  a silver plated bowl that was my Mother-in-Law’s and fill it with sparkling faux fruit. This is becoming a tradition for the mantle.

New this year is the addition of my Mom’s silver plated fruit bowl in the center of the table filled to overflowing with gold pine cones.

These photos were taken before the table was set and the last minute  details, greenery,scattering of fruit & pine cones on the table etc. etc.. (5 cats, need I say more?)

I hope your Christmas was Merry & Bright and filled with Joy!

I am hosting an Indian Dinner for the New Year, will post more photos then. Maybe some recipes too.
