The Gumdrop Tree

It's time for another Tabletop Tuesday over at A Stroll Through Life, come

join Marty and all the other bloggers showing off their latest creations.

EDIT:  Silly me forgot to post the link to the Solutions website,

where you too can get yourself a gumdrop tree! $19.95 + Free Shipping!

A good source locally for spice drops is Michael's.  They have the large

tubs usually up by the registers.

I can't remember a time when we didn't have a gumdrop tree set out

for the Christmas holiday.  Our first one was plastic and lasted for years, but

eventually the plastic began to break down.  I purchased this one through

a catalog and have really loved having it to continue this family tradition.

The gumdrop tree is taking center stage on this vintage tablecloth set with a

combination of vintage and contemporary Fiesta. The Yellow is vintage, while

Scarlet, Sapphire and Shamrock are contemporary Fiesta colors. While the

tablecloth is not a traditional Christmas themed cloth, I think it works well

with the bright Fiesta colors and the gumdrop tree.  It shouts "Christmas" as

well as any traditional red and green motif.

The flatware is "Masquerade" a licensed Fiesta accessory, red tumblers and napkins from Home Goods, while the snowflake tumblers are from Pfaltzgraff.
