Red and Gold Swirls

I am taking a lot of time this year to decorate for the holidays.  I usually can knock it out in a few days.
I must be  getting older.......
In the Breakfast room, I decided to dress the table in parchment Red china by Mikasa. I used a beautiful gold square placemat to show off the china.  It was a must to use the golf flatware.


The napkins are gold with swirls too.

You can see the reflection in the mirror.



                  Mr. Moose  is the centerpiece.
Old world Santa


I appreciate your visits.  Enjoy the holidays....Much Love.

  15. Goodness, woman! It's taking you awhile to decorate because you're decorating A LOT!!!! This looks fabulous! I love that swag way up high on the ceiling in front of the mirror!!! That alone must have taken a week to do!!! I love what you did with the garland & bows swagged on the light fixture, too. Very pretty! LOVE the "Parchment" china design. It is on my "Gotta Get" list. I have to mention again just how much I love those French doors that lead out to your patio area. They are HUGE, and I love the way the top is kind of rounded off rather than a straight line. All so pretty, Linda!!!!!!!
