Simple but Elegant Holiday Tables

With the holidays approaching, all the planning, shopping and cooking becomes an overwhelming task. We have taken a simple approach to setting the table this Christmas. We think you will be able to make your table look elegant with very little effort.

Our choice for dinnerware is our Antique Beaded Dinnerware (BD323). It is ivory, so it blends with whatever we do. Our flatware is called Chatou (BF046) and again goes with everything, our glasses – our favorites- Bee Glasses (BG066). The basics always remain the same – only the accents will change. Watch the transformation!
