Happy December sweet friends! The Christmas season is in full swing at our house. I have not completed decorating, but thankfully I decided to simplify this year!

The Sunshine Cottage welcomes you inside for a warm visit!
Congratulations to Debbie J., the winner of the one-day giveaway!
My friend Mary (Home Is Where The Boat Is) and I are excited to collaborate with Lynch Creek Farm once again to showcase their wonderful Christmas centerpieces and also offer a one-day giveaway. You will find Mary’s link and the giveaway details at the bottom of this post.
The Sunshine Cottage is dressed for the most wonderful time of the year.
A table for two has been set to enjoy the coziness of the cottage and highlight the gorgeous centerpiece from Lynch Creek Farm!
The “Forest Warmth” centerpiece brings to mind cherished memories of times spent in the Colorado Rockies, Canadian Rockies, and Great Smoky Mountains! The cream and plum-colored berry pods add a unique and natural touch to the fragrant assembly of fresh noble fir, cedar, and pine, with pine cones and shiny burgundy balls. An ivory candle sits on top and casts a warm and beautiful glow.
A plaid throw is being used to cover the round wicker table. Majolica dinner plates, nostalgic snowy village salad plates, April Cornell napkins, everyday stainless flatware, and Noritake Sweet Swirl dark blue stemware complete the place settings.
I love each of the four scenes depicted on the salad plates. Who doesn’t like a candy shop?
Lynch Creek Farm is a family owned company, started in 1980, that has been fully dedicated to producing sustainable evergreen products that do absolutely no damage to our environment. Lynch Creek Farm made the ethical decision to never cut down a single tree to provide the country with their beautifully fresh and elegant evergreen products. They cultivate evergreen boughs by trimming the lower branches of young coniferous trees in healthy and robustly forested areas, along the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. Once a tree reaches the mature age of 15 to 20 years old , it is no longer trimmed for boughs.
Candlelight brings instant ambiance to any table!
I am sharing only a peek into the cottage, but soon the doors will open wide to invite you in!
“It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air.”

Shadows and light dance across the table!
The Sunshine Cottage tree is decorated for my three grandchildren. The girls love it all, WL just wants to pull off the ornaments!
Of course, a tray of goodies is necessary!
A village toy store is depicted on this plate!

Good Morning Pam, Your Sunshine Cottage is living up to its name with the sunlight dancing and playing across your festive table! I adore your snowy village plates with the candy shop and toy store. Your bright throw provides a cozy and warm plaid layer to your table. Your ‘Forest Warmth’ centerpiece is so versatile and I know the fragrance of the fresh greens is wonderful in your cottage. I love your tree decorated in your candy theme. I know your grand girls must love visiting and playing there! I’ll take a goodie (or two 🙂 with me this morning. Thank you for the cheery start to my day. Merry December. ♥
Alissa says
Good morning,Pam. I love your sunshine cottage! Such a happy place to make many memories! Love the idea of a free centerpiece! Keeping my fingers crossed. 🤞🏼
marythore says
Absolutely love your candy shop inspired tablescape! I would choose Lynch Creek Farm’s beautiful “Winter’s Peace” centerpiece for my table and am indeed following them on Instagram. I have also pinned your “heart candy cane” photo to my Christmas Pinterest board and am also following you on Pinterest & Instagram.
Robyn Smith says
I like (and so would my Grandson) the Vintage Christmas Truck. I know Mary has used a Christmas Truck in several tablescapes. I followed you on Instagram and Pinterest. I’m knew to your blog and I love the salad plates!
Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas 🎄

Mar L says
I would choose the Light the Way arrangement, so many beautiful things and hard to choose just one.
Carole @ From My Carolina Home says
Lovely centerpiece, and those plates are charming.
Clara says
Pam, The Sunshine Cottage is beautiful! It’s so inviting. I couldn’t leave this morning without reading your post. It’s so cheery! When we get back Monday, we will be in full decorating mode! I would choose the Let it glow from the website. Enjoy your day. Clara❤️
Clara says
I pinned some of the pics to my Christmas board. I love those happy salad plates. They’re so colorful. The treats look delicious! Clara❤️
Jackie says
The evergreens are gorgeous. It is very hard to choose a favorite. I have never seen table top trees like these. I’m also very interested in the swags. If I have to choose a favorite, it would be the Christmas centerpieces.
Ann Burton says
Pam, thank you for sharing past Christmas tablescapes yesterday, and for giving us a peek at Sunshine cottage today. I always enjoy seeing how you’ve decorated it. I love the new Burst of Joy centerpiece! It would look so cute on a peppermint themed table. So many beautiful things on their website.
Debbie J says
Pam, your Sunshine Cottage is lovely! What a warm and cozy place to share with your Grandchildren. I love the centerpiece you have chosen. Lynch Creek Farms has so many beauties to choose from. The All That Glitters centerpiece would be great to last into January. I am now following you on Pinterest and have always followed on Instagram. I’ve pinned the toy store table picture. Love all these salad plates! Thank you Pam and Lynch Creek Farms for a generous giveaway.
Shannon@Belle Bleu Interiors says
Pam, your centerpiece and tablescape are beautiful! I always enjoy a visit to Sunshine Cottage. I can’t believe the Christmas season is already upon us. The older I get the faster it seems to come around. I have been purchasing wreaths and arrangements from Lynch Creek Farms for the past few years to send to friends and family, I have also been blessed to receive their products as gifts. The quality is always exceptional. I look forward to seeing more of your Christmas decor. Happy Thursday, sweet friend!
Jackie says
So excited to be following Lynch Creek Farms and Every day Living on Instagram and Pinterest. Thanks to you Pam, I’m learning about social media. The village toy store plate has now been pinned. Blessings, Jackie

Cheryl says
Oh, how exciting! I would love to win the giveaway! I think my favorite product on their website is the “Warm Welcome” wreath. They have so many beautiful things, though. I love them all! I am not on instagram, but I am already following you on Pinterest. I am going to pin a photo from this post. Thank you for the chance to win! I can’t wait to see the Sunshine Cottage full tour!
Donna says
Following you on Pinterest. I am following Lynch Creek Farms. So much beauty. My favorite is Hootin’ Holiday or Forest Warmth.
Your table is so festive with plaids, gorgeous china and a sweet, sweet tree twinkling in the background
marmeladegypsy says
That centerpiece is so gorgeous! And it’s just perfect with your plaid throw as a table cover. Elegantly rustic! Is it really time for Christmas yet? I can’t believe it!
Cherry Goodson says
As always a delight to see your posts. You are so talented. Always anxious to see your grandchildren in you husbands post. They are precious. My favorite is the Hootin Holiday but everything is exquisite. God bless you and yours this Christmas.
emily says
It would be hard to pick. I love several of their centerpieces. Beautiful!
Lauren S says
Love the cute candy shop plates on your table. I visited Lynch Creek Farms website and love the Grandma’s Cottage arrangement.
Cheryl King says
I already check in every year with Lynch Creek, after seeing your features in years past. Each year, I look longingly at the Wildlife Wreaths with cardinals and birdhouses- they match my Christmas decor! I am a Pinterest follower. Can’t wait to see the rest of your Sunshine Cottage.
Lauren S says
I pinned your cute picture of the table, centerpiece, and tree in the backgtound.

Good morning Pam. What a beautiful cottage to share with your grandchildren. I love the decorations on your tree. What a treat for the children to see.
Robin says
Thank you for the “giveaway”. I followed Lynch Creek Farm on Facebook. I would choose the “Mountain Adventures” centerpiece with the cute red lantern. I pinned your picture with those yummy looking Christmas cookies. They are so cute. What a fun room at the Storybook Cottage.
Phyllis Adams says
Pam, my favorite centerpiece is “Classic Christmas”. All the centerpieces are lovely!
CC says
Christmas vintage truck would be my fav to buy!
Linda Haley says
Wow! Love all the centerpieces, especially Jingle Bell Country. I followed you and Lynch Creek everywhere and pinned several pictures. Everything looks so festive!
Martha Franks says
Love all the centerpieces! Classic Christmas caught my eye, but I love the simplicity of the one you have! I follow you on pinterest and instagram. Love your cute salad plates with the candycane heart! So clever!
Maristella says
Thank you for such beauty and encouragement. Great giveaway. Blessings dear friend.
Lynn H. says
Hello Pam,
I adore your Sunshine Cottage all decked out for Christmas. I pinned your tablescapes and am now following you on Pinterest. My favorite arrangement from Lynch Creek Farm would have to be Mountain Adventures.
FrenchGardenHouse says
So beautiful, Pam! I was sorry I couldn’t join the two of you this time. Your cottage is ready for lots of holiday fun and memory making with your little people! I love many of the Lynchcreek Farm centerpieces, but this time around I really love your Forest Warmth one, it reminds me of my childhood vacation home in Europe. Wishing you a blessed week ahead, with plenty of opportunity to share your beautiful spirit and love with your little ones, and Mr. Renaissance too! xo Lidy
Debbie says
Your Cottage table is so delightful!!!! The plaid throw, napkins and plate colors all blend so beautifully together along with the exquisite centerpiece. I also love your handsome Saint Nicholas figurine displayed on your table. I know it is so magical for your sweet grandchildren to view your tablescape. It is always such a treat to be invited into your charming cottage. I send wishes to you for a most Blessed Advent Season.
Rita C. says
As I told Mary, I exclude myself from this fabulous giveaway since I won in 2020, but i will certainly vouch for the freshness of their product. Yours is beautiful, and perfect for the cottage. And you’ll be able to save both the candle and the pods/cones for future use. I so love the cottage. Your comment about WL is likely a preview to what I’ll see with J. She hasn’t been over yet – everyone’s been sick for about the last month! I can’t wait to see her.
Mary DeVine says
I love the ‘let it glow’ centerpiece!
Kim says
Pam, your table is so pretty! I am always drawn to plaid at Christmas – guess there is just something cozy and inviting about it. The salad plates are adorable and I love your pop of blue with the stemware. I can see but a glimpse of the tree but it’s surely a delight to the grands – who wouldn’t love a tree like that? And of course the Lynch Creek centerpiece is amazing; I can almost smell it from here! Happy Thursday to you and can’t wait to see your table next week!
Nancy Ruegg says
I too love the fact that you brought out the blue in the plaid blanket with stemware, a few ornaments and the pillow. I think it makes your cottage even more festive, even if it’s not a traditional Christmas color! P.S. Love that W. T. Ellis quote too. For us Jesus-followers, Christmas in the heart means CHRIST in the heart, our Emmanuel–God with us–permeating the air around us! (Or something like that!! 😁)
Pam @ Everyday Living says
Thank you, Nancy for your sweet comments!
Tea With Jennifer says
