Aqua Christmas vignettes in dining room

Everything in the dining room this year has been reused in different ways. The best thing I ever did was take the top of the hutch off. Not only did it open up the room but I gained space to do a vignette.

I went out to my back yard and cut some greens and silver Artemisia to fill this display.

I used a glass cake plate, a silver tray on top of that, then a silver vase. This gave the necessary height.

I got out old family silver candlesticks and even polished them! Put on crystal bobeches and dropped some plastic beads that I’ve had for years.

I’ve had these angels for many years, 20 or so. Last year I painted them in shades of aqua and they sat on top of the hutch top with a swag.

This year I’ve used them on the table.

And there is the swag that always went on the hutch top in it’s new location this year. It actually stands out so much more against the transom.

Very happy to change things up a little this year without spending a dime.

Thanks Rhoda for hosting the vignette party this year.
