Tablescapes, Merry Birthday!

 

A lot of people think it’s unfortunate to have a birthday so close to Christmas…

Not me!

 

 

Having a December birthday has always made me feel extra special 🎄

Everything is Merry & Jolly with lights, ribbons, and sparkle…

 

 

 

 

I set a Merry table in the foyer for the guys and me

 

 

 

Tonight we’re going to decorate the tree!

 

 

 

 

 The Advent Calendar says so

Ho ho ho!

 

 

 

 

 

The table is set with my favorite black and white

 

 

 

 

And lots of sparkling mini lights

 

 

 

 

Santa is there making things Jolly & Merry

 

 

 

 

With napkins styled like trees the color of cranberry!

 

 

 

 

Faux silvery packages sit on the plates

 

 

 

 

A cozy birthday celebration awaits!

 

 

 

 

I have no idea what’s on the menu

 

 

 

 

But I know it will be delicious

The kitchen is HHjr’s favorite venue!

 

 

 

 

 

See the HO pillow on the chair by the door?

 

 

 

 

If you take a closer look, you will see more

 

 

 

 

Hidden packages waiting for the wrapping chore

Oh, here comes UPS, there will be more

outside the front door!

 

 

 

I hope your December is full of holiday fun

And that your holiday shopping is almost all done

I hope that your home is a showplace, and not a Christmas mess...

And that you’re happy and calm, not full of Holiday Stress!

 

 

 

 

 

Tonight will be special, with my guys decorating the tree…

I just love December and Happy Birthday to me!

🎂

    Jenna, your rhyming and beautiful thoughts make me smile. A December birthday would be special. It makes for a festive time with all our homes decorated for the season. Love the black and white themed table. I know your tree will be fabulous after you and your group get it decorated. Ours is up and decorated. I made great progress over the weekend. I didn’t all I normally do, but enough to make me happy. Happy, Happy Birthday! You are a special friend!

  21. what a pretty table. Love the black and white check. A beautiful way to celebrate your birthday Jenna. How fun to have your special chef cook your birthday dinner.
