Say G'Day Saturday Linky Party ~ Christmas Tablescapes!

Hello dear friends! I'm so happy that you have dropped by to visit me in my little corner of the world Down Under today. I hope you have all been enjoying the first week of December. We have had a great week so far as my kids are now on Summer vacation! We have been baking, relaxing and catching up with our family.

Happy Birthday Johnny!

I have also been having lots of fun decorating our kitchen and dining room for Christmas!








I have nearly finished decorating but I am not quite sure what to do for our Christmas table.

I have tried a few ideas for the table....





I still have to work on how to dress up our table for Christmas meals...

What do you think about these ideas?

What do you think of my Pinterest inspired Christmas tablescape?









I am quite happy with this Christmas tablescape. I bought nothing new, used what I already had and still managed to make it feel festive and Christmassy!

So much inspiration here--love all the ideas. I think your Christmas beverage center is adorable.

Beth said...

You have saved me so much time by posting these lovely images. Only problem is I like so many of them it's difficult to just go for one look. Maybe I'll take your lead and just go with what I have and mix and match.

Hi Natasha. I love your Christmas tablescape at the end. It looks lovely - you've done so well with it. I really love all your decorating as well. I love all the little Santas, and you've given me a real idea with those baubles on the cake stand. I have several vintage cake stands that we bought for my daughter's wedding in the summer, so I can now use them for displaying Christmas baubles. Brilliant! You are very artistic in the way you arrange everything around your home. I would just like to thank you also for your lovely comment on my allergy post, and your virtual hug made me feel much better!! Take care my friend.

See you soon,

Everything is SO pretty! Your home is so beautiful. Love that you set the table with items you already had. Hard to imagine things are warming up for you, but what an interesting and wonderful Christmas feel it makes with every thing so light and airy. Very pretty. Thanks for sharing this amazing post in the party. Pinning and tweeting it.

What beautiful tablescape ideas! You did a very nice job on yours. I love the little stars and wreaths on the stems of the glassware. My favorite of the pinterest tablescapes are the cute little snowmen and gumdrop tree. Love how that all looks together. So whimsical! The others are of course very beautiful. Your home looks lovely. Have a wonderful weekend!
