A Country Christmas

Welcome to a Country Christmas in our kitchen.

We were heading out to our town's light up festival

on a Friday night after a long work week

so I kept it easy with pizza and paper.

 In lieu of flowers I used

my vintage like truck to hold extra 

napkins and flatware as the centerpiece.

 A red check paper table runner 

lines up battery operated

 mini Christmas trees

and red sparkle balls.

 I just love these tree napkins

with multi shades of red and green~so festive!

 You can see a peek of the gray

buffet in the background holding

our gingerbread collection of train lamp, 

gingerbread house and cloche holding a mini 

gingerbread house.

 I set out painted green mugs for coffee or cocoa 

after the lighting ceremony, 

while we will use soda cans and bottle waters for dinner

again keeping it super easy!

 The red truck has a matching

mini truck that holds tree

salt and pepper shakers.

I pulled out the plaid flatware I purchased at HSN a 

few years ago.  I imagine you will see a lot of the 

flatware this holiday season.

What get together are you planning for this holiday season?

Using paper makes for easy setup and cleanup

and allows you to enjoy

celebrating the blessings of family and friends!

Stop by the shop and grab some or all

of these paper items and plan it today -you can do this!
