Too many guests for
your dining room? Move the meal!
Some people have
their mantle in their living room and that's also a great place to add the
holiday pizzazz.

"We have a traditional holiday table, then we have a kids table thats ready
for an ice cream party and a wintery silver table."
Our traditional
holiday table may be red green but has a splash of golden wine.
"It's beautiful, I
love the gold."
Favors, place cards,
napkin rings, even spruced up seats make it fun and interesting!
If you want to enjoy
yourself then take care of the kids table!

"A holiday spread doesn't half to be just green and red, and some sparkle
like this."
Our winter wonderland
table perfect for any holiday party--has all the trimmings.
Jill S. Moran, CSEP
"Adds that bling to your place setting."
Silver balls hang
from the ceiling adding fun flair. A floral centerpiece is replaced with one
that sparkles! And tinsel gives it a little jungle bell rock.
