Some of you have been following me through this adventure for a while now.  It started back a while ago with me bribing you for ideas.  Then we moved on through the process of making a paper cake.  And the last part was the creation & assembly of the flatware and table details.  Now, I am happy to say, I have finished my hand-made holiday table.

The only items on the table that I did not make myself are:  1) the tablecloth, 2) the silverware, 3) the glass cake plate (although it does have rub-ons to embellish it).  Everything else is something I created.

Here is a close up of an individual place setting:

And here are the rest of the detail pictures:

I used the Ski Slope DS Paper for my color scheme and took my inspiration from that.  Each plate has a Christmas poem printed on it and each name card is the poem’s author.  The glasses are made from vellum paper, wrapped in a DSP strip and dipped in glitter on the rim.

It was a big undertaking of a project but it feels good to have contributed to this fundraiser/silent auction and to have my art displayed in a public location.

Please email me if you have any questions about anything.  I’m happy to help give more details if you’re interested.

Happy Stamping & Happy Thanksgiving!
