My "Christmas in Paris" theme is based on a composition blend of old and new. Table My grandmother has always been together with China better bones and antique silverware. Oil paintings, painted by my grandfather, adorned the walls. His holiday dedcor has been fashioned with sleek satin ribbons, crystals, shimmering, and excellent white Christmas tree, decorated with few ornaments, but the removal.

Even thecolour palette I chose was nostalgic, a combination of bright turquoise, surrounded by green and blue accented with pastel tones like silver, angelic whites and chocolate brown. As a young girl, these unusual combinations of colors of Christmas is a very strong impression on me. My table this year is a tribute to my grandmother who is now 98 years old. One could say that style with influences of traditions are passed down from generation to generation. With this specific concept in mind, the picture I chose is a dining room cream colored, set by Tommy Bahama.

For water glasses, I transformed plain glasses (picked up at a rummage sale) of turquoise and green stripes with glass paintings.

I wanted a chic, fun center, but with a different key. I used a crystal cake stand square and filled with assorted beads, green and silver balls, and placed a pillar candle in the center. To decorate the cage and the buffet I fresh greens, provided by Westmont Florist, to arrange a courtesy. branches of eucalyptus, pine and willow branches, the lace of Queen Anne and Ornitogalums are refined with silver accents angel hair. The vases are accented with squares of marble model, mixing assorted shades of blue and green.

The crystal candlesticks are Bejeweled with a crystal beaded fringe, which is repeated throughout the theme. The tea-light holders candle is a flounce of white feathers. Two frosted glass votive lamps are beaded clear microphone in forms of the Eiffel Tower. I saw a vintage chandelier to coordinate with the environment.
