Santa, you are NOT properly hung over!" :-) :-) :-)<br /><br />This was a FABULOUS idea, Linda! I just know it looked fantastic on the long buffet table! The rustic nature of the sled is a perfect juxtaposition to the shimmery threads of gold in your tablecloth and napkins as demonstrated. When I click on and enlarge the photos, it is VERY easy to see the pretty gold running through those fabrics. Great idea to cut down the tablecloth and create a runner. You are very brave and talented to do that!<br /><br />The birch branch really, really took the centerpiece to a whole other level!!! I love that you thought of that to add height without interfering with the overall look!!! I also love the soft, draping look of the greenery with those pretty white poinsettia blooms. GORGEOUS!!!<br /><br />You will undoubtedly be called upon again and again to create something special for this event. You knocked it WAY out of the ballpark this year!<br /><br />Merry Christmas to you and Mr. Pressed Pants!Alycia Nicholshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14690591304562176674noreply@blogger.com
