Plaid is still such a trend again this year. I wanted to do something a little different after I found these gold and black plates at Homegoods this year. I combined the plaid with polka dots, stripes, and lots of textures.
I am using a mirror frame to anchor the centerpiece. I think a tray, mirror, platter, or another container makes it so much easier to contain a centerpiece. My frame is a very heavy metal frame. It was a mirror from Pottery Barn. The original price marked on it was $300.00. The glass had a big crack so they had a price tag of $10.00. I felt it was a great price. Purchased at a PB/WS outlet tent sale. It is the original color.
Little desserts with a sparkle of edible gold glitter on them.
A deeply rich golden dinner plate.
Gold flatware has a lot of texture that blends with all the texture in the plate stack.
My favorite prize for every Christmas guest. A fun Christmas Cracker/popper. Having scalloped edges on them to match the scallops on the golden dinner plate.
I love your comments. Feel free to leave one, they are much appreciated. Thank you.

ReplyDeleteYou have some gorgeous accessories to compliment this theme. The nutcracker is fantastic. Beautifully done.
What a great idea to use a mirror for a platter! That frame is just stunning! I love the black and gold. It is so fun and dramatic. I always like to use an usual color combination - or less traditional, I guess! Hope you are ready and have a wonderful Christmas.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Valerie! Gold and black is so elegant, perfect for New Years too- the mirror platter is a real wow factor!

This is so elegant and gorgeous! Love the platter/mirror! I bet they wondered what you would do with a mirror with a big crack in it;) Wishing you a very Merry Christmas, Valerie!
ReplyDeleteThis is so glitzy and festive! Your centerpiece is stunning! I love the idea of crackers, but a few years ago i had them for 12 people and it was so messy....I found confetti everywhere for days!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a different take on a Christmas table and I do like it, especially the polka dots.
