Silver Christmas

I love putting together a coffee table vignette.
I think there's just something about
that open, flat surface that calls out to me.

Am I crazy or what? 
 
Don't answer that.
 
 
 
I filled this urn with some bottle brush trees, pine cones
& ornaments.
  
 
My dear friend, Jess, gave these silver presents to me
as a gift a few years ago.  I think they are so pretty!
 
I had to buy those skinny reindeer at TJ Maxx this year.
I couldn't resist their long, skinny legs.
Something I know I shall never possess. lol
  
 
Oh my goodness, there's a little bit of sunshine peeking
through on the photo above!  It's been some time since
we've seen the sun.
 
 
Time is moving right along.
It's hard to believe there's only 12 days left 'til Christmas!

  6. Even the sun wanted to come over and enjoy the whimsy you created, Gina.
    Lovely!
    A non decor friend told me the other day "oh, you chose the safe theme. there's not much wrong you can do with white, silver and gold for the holidays"
    Beg to differ. You can do wrong and you can do wonderfully right like in this case. Amazing Job, Dear Gina!!!

  12. You sure can make a gorgeous table scape. So pretty, original and personal for you. Isn't that part of what decorating is about, your personal take on using things you love. Your take on it all is splendid. I'm sure inspired.
    Your pillow in background is incredible also, Wonderful life pillow? Did you make that one yourself? If so please tell us how you did it, maybe a transfer to use. If you didn't make it where did you get it? Love it for it's being different, never saw one before.

  16. You know that is so pretty it makes me want to wrap some gifts as table decorations. But I can't get the real wrapping done so don't hold your breath.

  18. I love your coffee table vignette. Long skinny legs? What are those? Yes, the sun finally made a reappearance here, too. I wanted to go out and bask in it yesterday morning and then realized it was 24 degrees at the time. Not really good for basking.

    Hugs,
    Laura

  22. I love, love your coffee table. The bottle brushes are so cute and they look great in the urn. I am also loving the "It's A Wonderful Life" pillow on the sofa. That is my family's favorite Christmas movie.
    Merry Christmas, Ginger
