"Peace on earth will come to stay,

When we live Christmas every day."

-Helen Steiner Rice

May the magic and wonder of the season…
Bring joy and happiness to you…
May it be a season you will always remember…
And stay with you, your whole life through…
May the timeless message of Christmas…
Fill your heart and home with love…
May you and yours be forever blessed…
With the peace of the snow white dove…

"There's more, much more, to Christmas

than candlelight and cheer;

It's the spirit of sweet friendship

That brightens all year.

It's thoughtfulness and kindness,

It's hope reborn again,

For peace, for understanding,

And for goodwill to men! all!

This tablescape also includes a couple of trayscapes as well.
My inspiration started with the large white dove in the centerpiece
that I recently found at a T/S.

Then I added several pieces from my sterling silver collection.
I used my favorite silver vase as a base for the centerpiece and then topped it with a mirrored tray to place the large dove arrangement on.

The rest is made up of silver toned plates, and floral picks from Dollar Tree.

White dove ceramic napkin rings (T/S). Pine cones and greenery from my backyard, a pair of Fitz and Floyd bunnies,

and also vintage postcards from my collection.

Thanks for stopping by today and

I hope you enjoyed my final tablescape for 2009!

"May the Joy and Peace of Christmas

be with you now and throughout the new year!"

Lots of love, Sherri:)
