A very simple tablescape for Christmas Eve here at In the Middle of Nowhere.
Table cloth-TJMaxx
Napkins-Estate sale
Chargers-HomeGoods
China-Noritake 'Luray' 1935
Crystal-I was told it was Fostoria, but have never found any listed like it
Sterling-Oneida 'Afterglow' 1956
Sterling Serving Spoons-Maker/Pattern unknown, there is a shield with an S and something that I can't make out and a C stamped by itself, other than that there is just Sterling and pat'd stamped. The pattern is what looks like a day lily. If anyone knows anything, let me know...I would love more pieces of this sterling.
Candlesticks-Goodwill, they were brass and I painted them cream color
Domed cake plate with ornaments-have had for quite some time
Thank you for taking the time to drop by. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

The china is just beautiful. Love the colors. You don't see as many patterns like that any more and they really are striking. I like how you paired the cranberry goblets with the china. And that flatware, how pretty is that? Beautiful job.
What a beautiful table! I love the aqua colors!!!
Merry Christmas, Auntie M!

Very pretty china, sets a lovely table. I do love the crystal! I have been looking for something like that this year but haven't found it. I will just have to keep looking. Have wonderful Christmas.
Hi Mimi
Beautiful china..love that pattern. I recognize your sterling spoons...it's a pattern I've seem on eBay but I'm drawing a complete blank on the name. If it hits me, I'll come back and leave another comment. I do remember it was one of the most expensive and hard to find patterns of all. I think it's gorgeous! Merry Christmas!

I love the silverware pieces - The patterns are gorgeous ~ especially the 'unknown' piece. I adore your china pattern as well. Very pretty! Happy Holidays!
You have some incredible china pieces. I love the color scheme you've chosen. The flatware is truly wonderful. Love the cranberry goblets mixed in for an added punch of color. From our home to yours a Very Merry Christmas. hugs ~lynne~

Beautiful dishes, flatware and crystal made a lovely setting!
Happy New Year!
Fabulous china collection, merry christmas to you & yours
Hi Mimi! I am laughing at your comment about my Gw...yes, I think they are clueless as to what they are giving away! My friend Linda and I have visitied most of the GWs in the area and scoped out the best ones that are in snazzy neighborhoods, too. But honestly, I just think it's young people who don't want to polish Grandma's old silver! Good! More for me! You have some really great thrift shops in your area, too! Have a wonderful week and a happy New Year!...hugs...Debbie
What a pretty Christmas table :-) Love your red feather tree! Did you make it?
OH MY....LOVE the china! What gorgeous colors and the scalloped edge is just pretty!
Beautiful dishes and silver.

Oh, wow, you have some gorgeous pieces. I just love all of your colored glassware. It remind me of my mother, as she has many, many pieces of glassware. Thanks for sharing and thanks for stopping by my blog. Happy New Year and Happy Tablescaping to you!
