  20. My Granddaughters have told me ridiculous means cool.

    So...

    I wanted to say what a ridiculously ridiculous amazing tablescape this is. I opened it and wsa instantly transported into the holiday spirit.

    You make me want to donate all my dishes to goodwill and get some cool stuff!

    I wouldn't have felt that red, black and white would be so festive, but as always you nailed it.

    You are a joy!

    Thank you for linking.

  36. Oh wow! I think you liked this one! LOL

    A little off the wall, but it proves again that Black and White Harlequin prints work for ANY occasion.

    I did cheat a bit on the candy canes ..... they are actually black and orange and came from Michael's at Halloween!

    The snowman plates came from Home Goods!

    Thank you all,
    Candy
