Festive Christmas Table - Our Christmas Dining Table

  The Mullaney's Christmas Table


I set the table early for Christmas dinner, just to check one item off my list!

This year I went with a combination of old and new china pieces, some I had and other pieces I picked up at one of my favorite shops Devonia Antiques in Beacon Hill. I love mixing my patterns, it makes it more interesting! I wanted to find china with raspberry tones to complement my wallpaper in the dining room, the raspberry and gilt salad plates were just too perfect!

Together, the green Minton English dinner plates and raspberry and Gilt salad plates, are so festive and classic!  I pulled in a Tiffany's bread plate with a simple gold band with a playful dot. The crystal on the table adds another layer of icing and again incorporates festive green and deep raspberry tones.  Green Venetian Glasses, on bread plate, with raised enamel and Gilt foliate decoration, Vera Wang duchess goblets, and the raspberry tone Goblets from Val St Lambert, balance the glassware. These snowflake napkins from Sferra are one of my favorites!

Off to do more wrapping! Happy Holidays to all! 







P.S.

On Christmas Eve day, I make Filet of Beef Bourguignon, and let it sit over night ( which makes it even better!)  and then the next day an easy reheat in the oven.  A delicious meal! Check it out here if you want to give it a try!
