“Just Hear Those Sleigh Bells Jinglin” Tablesetting

Just hear those sleigh bells jinglin’, ring ting tinglin’, to…..This is the song this tablesetting brings to my mind. Set with 222 Fifth’s Andover pattern, this dinnerware features a horse and sleigh in front of an old log cabin.  This dinnerware evokes a very nostalgic setting that is reminiscent of Christmas past.

The border on the outside of each plate is a rust-red shade with ivory pinecones and holly.  The horse and sleigh design is gray on an ivory background. This design appears only on the supper plate.  The dinner plate has a plain center which allows the food to present well on it.

The cereal/soup bowl features only the log cabin design in the bottom of the bowl.

I used an off-white tablescloth and matching napkins to connect to the background in the dinnerware. Holly-berry napkin rings make napkin preparation very easy and add, what I call, jewelry to the table.

It seemed only fitting that the centerpiece for the table should feature a sleigh.

And, of course, who should be in the sleigh but old St. Nick!

And, here is a look at the table all set for dinner!

I added a few small tree candles to draw in that feature from the dinnerware design.

This is a very pretty set of dishes and, keeping the centerpiece simple, they get to be the stars on the table.
