Christmas Tablescape, Lenox, Holiday: Welcome to the 122nd Tablescape Thursday!

Hi Everyone! Christmas is almost upon us. My son and his sweetie arrived today and we haven't stopped talking, yet! :) So much catching up to do! I know you are just as busy at your home, so I'm keeping the pics to a minimum this evening.

Tonight's tablescape is one of the tablesettings we'll enjoy over the next few days. The centerpiece is Colonial Williamsburg inspired and super easy to make. I've made this centerpiece for previous Christmas tablescapes and I've had several requests to post a tutorial showing how it's made. I will get that tutorial up either this weekend or for Metamorphosis Monday. Hope you enjoy this holiday table setting!

































Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Looking forward to viewing your beautiful tablescapes!
