Santa Claus Is Coming To Town Tablescape

I actually caught Santa coming through our front

doors a couple of years ago.

He was kind enough to stop and pose for a picture

and it is one that we framed and put out at

Christmastime.

This week all of the little elves have been busy

decorating for Christmas here at Purple Chocolat Home

so

 I thought we would begin the holiday 

tablescaping in honor of the big guy and feature him

on our table.

Today's table is set in the formal dining room

with Santa as the center of the table.

Red and white stacked plates

fit perfectly as they are

  Santa's favorite colors.

The larger dinner plate is scalloped and 

has raised holly leaves.

The stack is topped with a modern

Christmas tree on a small red plate.

Even though I caught a peek of Santa that

year,

 his rule is still no peeking!

and no pouting!

Red and white napkin rings are

twisted from a floral pick.

And he means it!

We can't have Santa sitting at ordinary chairs so

the chairs in the formal room are

decked out too with a length of

crinkle decorating fabric and

jewels.  This is such an easy way to

add a fun bit of decorating to your

room.

This inexpensive fabric comes on a roll. 

 Just cut off the desired length and tie it around

the back of your chairs.

A sparkly floral fills the center

of the table and we have to have

a few pieces of candy for Santa to enjoy.

Red flatware is perfect for the holidays

and gets used around here a lot.

I paired my ruby goblets with

bubble goblets that have a ruby stem.

I love how the red and clear 

alternate on these two goblets.

It fits perfectly with the red and 

white theme.

I agree with Santa, red and white

are wonderful.

Red and white napkin rings that 

were made from a floral  pick are

used with bright red napkins.  

 I love the blinged out ruby red chargers too.

I think Mrs. Claus would love this table too.

Santa's table is all set.

He is welcome anytime.

I will be posting this with
