Tania Sinel: ~our holiday dining room~

This year I am not hosting Thanksgiving at our home, so I skipped right ahead and gave it a little Christmas makeover. I was excited to use some new products that I got from Caravan Home Decor to pull it all together!

I am not going way over the top this year, and I am using mainly my Christmas items that have the most meaning to me. Vintage pieces, ornaments my kids made when they were little, etc.

You'll see how I incorporated those into my dining room decor here.

I set the table very simply using an existing vase and some greens out of the yard, as well as some grocery store lilies and white roses.

For a bit of color I added a collection of my favorite vintage glass ornaments to this marble fruit bowl. At first I had clementines in there, but thought this idea was a little funner, and it will last a lot longer too.

I still might swap out that tree print for something a bit more holiday-ish for the season.

On top of each plate I placed a linen napkin tied with ribbon, adding vintage silverware and a sprig of rosemary.

On the sideboard I created a little vignette using this round marble cheeseboard as a base for my vintage bottle brush trees, and vintage reindeer.

Next to it is a stack of marble appetizer plates.

I think these would also work great as coasters, or bases for candles.
