Here’s my second holiday look for you! This was actually my table last year. As a matter of fact, several of these pictures are from last year.
A couple of notes:
-The eucalyptus branch that I have down my table is from Target. It’s Joanna Gaines, and I cut the stems off.
-The trees that you see I got from all over. Some are from Michaels. Some, Target. Some HomeGoods. Some, Pottery Barn. You can find these trees everywhere!
-The Table Runner that I use with this look, I’ve had for years! It’s my FAVORITE runner. I love it on my Easter Table too. And it’s on major sale right now. See LINK below!!

I love this! I was listening on the radio this morning and was touched by the idea of the decorated table being inviting and welcoming to your family and guests. My mind went immediately to the Marriage supper of the Lamb and I was thinking about what kind of table setting there would be to welcome us all home. I’ve made up my mind to set our table for our Christmas meal in order to make it memorable, special and welcoming to my family. Thank you again for the inspiration.

I am absolutely speechless at how BEAUTIFULLY this table setting came out!!! I cannot believe you pulled it off on a budget. I am so impressed by this. Well done once again Carmen! You are a true inspiration!

You did an amazing job tying it all together, Carmen! Obsessed with that table runner! We are hosting my mother-in-law this year, so I will definitely be referring back to this. Hope y’all have a blessed and cheery Christmas!

I love that you are sharing a little piece of your home with us. Like you, I grew up in the south and it wasn’t a holiday without a beautifully set table. Your mama (and Memaw & Mawmaw) raised you well! My mom passed away 6 years ago (a couple of months before Christmas). and while we miss her terribly we have continued her traditions and a set table is at the top of the list. ❤️

Good afternoon I was having problems trying to find the link earlier to comment for a chance to win and then I had internet problems now I was able to find your blog again but realized it was to late 😩. I do want to comment and tell you that you have inspired me to start something new I have my own little traditions that we do but we never decorated a table for Christmas I really love your runner and everything with both tables but my favorite is the winter 🥶 wonderland. I’m going to try to pull off two tables because I have a lot of people coming over to my apartment LOL so a kids table plasticware and adult table real China I’ll send you pictures once I have done it 😌 have a blessed and merry Christmas.
