Advent table

Have you broke out your Christmas decor yet??

All of my pretties have already found their way out of their plastic tubs & onto this table that I decorated for Advent at our church last night. Check it out!

It was fun and easy to throw together...

I used candlesticks, that I borrowed from my mantel, as the table's main centerpiece. I decorated 2 chargers with Christmas presents, ornaments, etc., and temporarily secured them to the candlesticks using tacky, floral tape. It was one of those look but don't touch types of things!

I set the candlesticks on some crates (that I got in Round Top) to add just a few more inches of height. I used wrapping paper for the placemats & spread out more pretties to hide the crates and tablecloth.

Each guest received a handmade, very imperfect, wine/water glass that I personalized with their initial.

They were also lucky enough to partake in the cake pops that my friend Misty & I worked so hard on! Yum! They were almost too cute to eat!...Almost!!

It was a great night and a great way to set the mood for the Christmas season!

And now that it's said & done, I have to admit that I'm fighting the thought of having to pack everything back up till after Thanksgiving!

Is early November too early??
