Holiday Table Inspiration

Can you believe Christmas is in TWO DAYS? I tend to be a bit of a procrastinator at times, and this holiday season is no different. Gift wrapping will probably happen around 7pm Christmas eve, and I just now decided what I'm making as a contribution to Christmas dinner. Anyway, the table setting is also something I've been thinking about last minute - but maybe that's a good thing. Overdone table settings can be distracting, cluttered, and overwhelming. I'm thinking that since I'm doing this last minute, it will hopefully be simple and clean.

If you are in the need of a quick holiday centerpiece, and aren't afraid of breaking away from the traditional red, green, white, silver, gold color scheme, grab a basket of clementines and a simple vase/hurricane - DONE!

Even though this time of year can be stressful, remember to keep your cool and remind yourself of what is really important. It's not how perfect your table looks, but who is gathered around it. Happy Holidays!
