Don't you agree that the glow from the lights and candles are a favorite part of the holidays!
I love relaxing in the evening with the lights dimmed low so I can enjoy the soft glow from the lights and candles....
This year my tree is up on my game table that I covered with a table cloth and then topped it with a tree skirt...
The mantel is dressed with florals, beaded garland, and Angels
The nativity set has lights under the tinsel and candles adding to the mood....
This is my "menagerie of glass"
A little bit of glamour...varying candle holders and votives with a gold and clear beaded garland tucked in and around the display and a couple of gold decorated ornaments (don't forget you can click on any picture to enlarge it)
My lantern box landed in this corner on the wood top of the built in cabinets. I love looking in the window at Santa as though I was a child again looking in the big Christmas window displays at the department store...
I put lights underneath the white snow blanket to add some more interest...
This is my little Waterford Christmas Tree I found at T.J. Maxx for quite a bargain price!
And finally my chandelier over the kitchen table...I took a wreath and attached it upside down to the light fixture...I attached ornaments to the wreath and put the glittery garland on the top...
So this is a little bit more of my holiday decorating and I hope you enjoy the glow of the lights and candles as I do!
Happy Holidays!!
Beautiful Liz. I like your tree, especially raised. I agree the lights and candle light are gorgeous. I also use wreaths on my chandeliers. It makes quite an attractive focal point. Everything is so festive. Love it all.
