A Nutcracker Parade

~ Blog hop, Christmas, Everyday Living, Faith, Tablescapes

Merry Tuesday sweet friends! I hope this finds you resting with your feet propped up and enjoying a cup of coffee or hot chocolate! In other words, have you completed your decorating and shopping?

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
‭‭John‬ ‭1:1‬ ‭

I am joining twenty creative table stylists for a Christmas Tablescape Blog Hop hosted by my talented friend, Rita at Panoply. I have reserved you a spot along the route for A Nutcracker Parade!

Nutcrackers and dishes briefly left the Sunshine Cottage to get lined up for a parade on the dining room table!READ MORE

If you are like me, I love fresh greenery during the Christmas season. My Renaissance Man has been cutting fresh pine and hand-making garland to surround our exterior doors for years. In case you missed the Sunshine Cottage dressed in its beautiful garland, you can see it here. He also cuts fresh Leyland Cypress for vignettes and our dining room chandelier.

However, I have never been able to talk RM into making a fresh centerpiece. No need to fret, Lynch Creek Farm to the rescue!

A beautiful, fragrant, and woodland centerpiece from Lynch Creek Farm was perfect for a Season’s Greetings tablescape!READ MORE
