TABLETOP TUESDAY..... My first!





Susan, from Between Naps on the Porch invited me to Tabletop Tuesday..... I am a newbie and wasn't quite certain what to do.  So I have reposted my Thanksgiving Table.  My China pattern is Lenox Eternal, and the salad plates are Lenox Holiday Tartan.  The centerpiece is one that I designed using all faux greens and assorted fruits and berries. I must admit, had I known about Tabletop Tuesday, I would have used cloth napkins...... thirty lashes!  You ladies put me to shame!  I promise to do better for my Christmas table!
