New Year's Tablescape - from the archives

I'm in Illinois visiting my Dad so I am sharing my New Year's tablescape from my archives. The first one is my last year's but I still love it. Take a look




I used Lenox Holiday Nouveau Gold salad plates placed on Lenox Eternal China dinner plates.



The napkins are also the Lenox Holiday Nouveau pattern with Lenox Eternal Gold flatware. I love the gold trim on the plates and the flatware. Such a beautiful holiday look this brings to the table. These pieces are sitting on Lenox placemats which have such a delicate feel. 



The glassware for the table features clear Fostoria goblets and amber wine glasses. I choose the Fostoria because it was my Mom's favorite and the amber wine glasses for their color, hoping to accent the gold rim on the China and flatware. What do you think?




The centerpiece was created using winter white glittered magnolias, gold and silver glittered leaves, white candles in crystal candlesticks, gold and silver stemmed pieces, plus two types of pine cones.






Additional candlesticks are added to each end of the centerpiece for a little more beauty and elegance.


My centerpiece theme was carried to my sideboard with the magnolias, pine cones and silver stems. Two white candles in Lenox candlesticks are reflecting in the silver platter. Two pillar candles are used with silver candle holders.



My New Year's tablescape in 2012 was similar. I used the same magnolias but different hurricanes and candles. The ones below are very old and have been through many of our moves. 


The dishes I used in 2012 were not china but stoneware so not the elegant look as in 2013. 


Right now all of our belongings are in storage until we purchase a new home. I am having my other knee replaced in February so we can't possible find a new house and move before February. It will probably be Spring before we make a move. Thanks goodness our daughter has room for us. 

Thanks for always stopping by my blog and leaving such kind messages. I hope 2015 brings you peace and happiness - Judy.

Note: See you soon when I return from my visit to Illinois.

Holiday Home Tour on Legacy Lane - the guest rooms and laundry

I am continuing the home tour of my friend, JoAnn from Jo on Legacy LaneJo was invited to have her home on the annual Holiday Tour of Homes hosted by the Kappa Department of Murray Woman's Club in Murray, KY. I am featuring her home since she has had zero time to create any posts for her blog.

Today, I am spotlighting the guest rooms and laundry.  Sit back and enjoy!


JoAnn made the blue pillows on the bed and in the chair. The walls are painted Berkshire Beige. 






The lamp below is a hand-blown glass purchased from Lulu's Home Trends in Murray, KY. The two picture are from there too.


JoAnn has another tabletop tree in this room. Love her colors of the turquoise blues and silver.



Along with the blues and silver, this tree has beautiful butterflies



Take a close look at this gorgeous silver cabinet. JoAnn recently had it painted at Lulu's Home Trends. It was once an oak cabinet.




A Santos doll sits on the cabinet below the tv.




The guest bath.



Another guest room is for her granddaughter to spend the night. This room is done in a Paris theme. Two of the pillows on the bed are frenchy fabric and JoAnn made all the pillows.



Here you can get a glimpse of the pink ceiling. The walls are painted Galveston Grey. Pink ornaments and silver high heel shoes are along the garland.


This tree has Eiffel towers, silver purses, vintage postcards and pink ornaments.


You will remember that I have mentioned that JoAnn sews so she does have a sewing room. She has done some decorating in this room too and has the cuties tree decorated in a sewing theme.


Her tree has spools of thread and a tape measure as ornaments and garland. She also made a Christmas wall handing. The garland over the large mirror in the room has another tape measure woven in plus you can see the clear ornament filled with buttons.
 


The last area I am sharing is her laundry. It is part of a long hallway heading to the garage at one end and the master bedroom at the other. 




All is certainly decorated and beautiful at Jo and Bill's home on Legacy Lane. I have certainly enjoyed sharing this tour with you.

Holiday Home Tour on Legacy Lane - the porch

I am continuing the home tour of my friend, JoAnn from Jo on Legacy LaneJo was invited to have her home on the annual Holiday Tour of Homes hosted by the Kappa Department of Murray Woman's Club in Murray, KY. I am featuring her home since she has had zero time to create any posts for her blog.

Today, I am spotlighting the back porch.  Sit back and enjoy!





Jo Ann has beautiful patio furniture on her porch. A glass-top round table that she set with Santa plates for the holidays makes an enjoyable place to eat.


The stemware is the "12 Day of Christmas" that was a gift from her brother about 35 years ago. He purchased them from Dillards. Jo Ann made the holiday napkins and the Santa boots. Remember I mentioned that she can sew!


The tree on the porch is a fur tree and purchased from Trees and Trends.



The porch is just off the kitchen and keeping room. That makes it easy to cook and exit to the porch to eat. Love the yellow cushions and accent pillows. 





Thanks Jo Ann for sharing your holiday home and porch - Judy.

Love how Jo Ann used a tabletop tree in the master. 


The tree has lots of Christopher Radko ornaments.


Did you notice Santa's suit on the bed?



Each side of the Thomasville sleigh bed has a Santa on the table. 




Even the bedposts are decorated. 




The armoire is topped with Santa and his sled. 



Just across from the foot of the bed is a mirrored chest with the television on the wall above. 







In the master bath, you can find Frosty relaxing in the soaking tub and Santa did remember to take off his boots before stepping in. 



The shower is a rain shower. The sconces on the mirror have Christmas ornaments tied with ribbons.
