Yesterday was spent in our kitchen. Travis and I dancing around each other as we worked on various dishes and kept a close eye on the bird. I used many (if not all!) of Pioneer Woman's recipes- and she did not disappoint!
I kept the table simple, using my Wedgewood Queensware china (ebay score!) and Pottery Barn flatware. I love that the plates are a bit mismatched in size and show so much aging in them. The goblets are from Southern Living at Home- and are fragile, so they barely get used once a year. The napkins are a wonderfully durable linen and were bought on Etsy. I use them year round, and they hold up very well.
Our table is a French antique that I purchased from a small antique store nearby. I love that it has leaves that pull out of either side and that I can comfortably seat ten people around it. Folded up it seats our six perfectly. The chairs are from World Market.
I love that my PB pieces have that lovely tarnished/worn look even though they are "new"...
The topiaries normally sit on our living room fireplace mantel. I just popped them on top of a lovely burlap runner made by my cousin over at Sweet Tea & Linen.
I did use an "overflow table" for the kiddos ;) Luckily I had this table out in the workshop that I had finished up earlier this month. It's going to the market on December 7th.
My new slipcovers were installed the day before. I am SO beyond excited at how they turned out, and plan on sharing the details and the lovely artist with you in another post. Well worth the investment!
It was a lovely day spent with family and a roaring fire in the fireplace.
I am truly thankful.
