It's A Turquoise Christmas

I'm joining the Christmas 2010 Tour of Homes hosted by Nesting Place

Lovely homes and great decor!  By the time you arrive at

The Little Round Table

 I hope you'll be ready to take a place at my table for 

 a nice lunch at this Turquoise, Shamrock and Scarlet filled table.

After lunch I'll show you what I've been up to with some other

holiday pizazz and bling.

 I'm also joining Marty's weekly Tabletop Tuesday event over at

A Stroll Through Life, so stop back later for a glass of wine or cider.

You will need it!  This is a very long post  ...... but it is a very special

holiday with so much going on, I do hope you'll last until we cozy up

by the fire.

Both vintage and reissue Fiesta dinnerware is represented on this table.  Shamrock, Turquoise and White plates are reissue.  The center vase is Fiesta Turquoise from the 1939 World's Fair, where a working kiln produced souvenir pieces.  You can read more about that fair HERE.  The vintage Figure 8 tray in Turquoise holds two reissue ramekins, rather than the vintage cream/sugar set it usually holds.

The spiral candle holders are vintage Metlox, sterling is American Directoire, vintage green Depression Glass is paired with red tumblers from Home Goods.

Ivory Metlox spiral candle holders and some vintage items from Homer Laughlin.  The Ball Jug is vintage Harlequin.

Little white pitcher from Home Goods stands with vintage Homer Laughlin Turquoise creamer and gravy boat.

The excitement is building as we get closer to that special day,
 before you go here is a peek at some of my Christmas decor.

2010 Christmas Tree

I'm just overwhelmed with all the beauty across blogland during this festive
time of year.  Come sit by the fire with me and put your feet up.

Have the Happiest of Holidays!
