Christmas Table Settings

Well I did it! I finally managed to decorate our Christmas table, with only one day to spare before the feast. 

Picture below: our 2016 Christmas table setting. I relocated the Renoir reproduction "Madame Henriot" painting from above my living room fireplace mantel to here and it was an accidental success. I carried this year's simple, elegant and a dash of feminine theme through to the table settings. 

The flower centerpiece was my first-ever DIY floral arrangement. I gathered a few of my favourite flowers including white hydrangeas and champagne roses, and eucalyptus leaves to add a touch of festivity. 

Pretty happy with how the bouquet turned out. I think I will be making more floral arrangements going forward. 



Saeco Moltio Carafe super automatic espresso machine was probably the most exciting and anticipated addition to our family this year. I took advantage of Hudson's Bay's Black Friday sale and bought ourselves an early Christmas present. Let's just say what comes out of the machine is pure magic and 100% delicious and addictive. Never underestimate the power of being properly caffeinated. 



With that, I am going to sign off and start cooking/baking up a storm. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you and your loved ones! May 2017 be a happy and successful year to us all!
