Silver-Tiered Centerpiece for Christmas

Welcome to the 63rd Tablescape Thursday!

A few months ago, I was shopping in one of my favorite antique/thrift stores, and I came across a pretty multi-tiered, silver server. It was a bit more than I really wanted to spend at $50 and it seemed a bit on the high side for the Flea…but it grabbed hold of me and refused to let me leave without it. I’d been planning on putting together a formal tablescape for TT for sometime…now I had the perfect centerpiece. As I played with this tablescape, it suddenly took an unexpected turn and took on a Christmas feel. So hope you enjoy a touch of Christmas, just a little early.

With the lights turned up and the candles, not lit…

Let’s dim the lights just a bit…and light those candles…

After I’d taken quite a few pics, I decided to add some blooms from my Encore Azalea to the tiered centerpiece….this pic was taken with the azaleas.

Here’s a pic of the centerpiece taken prior to adding in the azaleas blossoms.

Found this little star ornament at Hobby Lobby last Christmas. Using a pretty ribbon, I attached it to the top of the server.

I gathered lots of pretties from around the house. I knew I wanted to keep all the colors white, silver or crystal clear…with just a touch of red. The little silver-painted pine cones were gifts from a sweet niece one year. She always gives wonderful gifts that she makes herself…aren’t those the best kind?!

The sparkly, silver starfish you see above, and pictured here below…

Nothing was off limits for filling my centerpiece, as long as it fit somewhat within the color scheme. I mixed in three different styles of napkin rings (pearl, jingle bells and silver) right along beside ornaments I already had or found recently at Old Time Pottery.

For this formal setting, I envisioned luscious, red strawberries, piled high with fresh cream. The tiniest fork to the outer left edge is a strawberry fork. (If pic appears cut off on the right, try adjusting the resolution on your computer to a higher setting.) China is Noritake, Pattern is Colburn…it was the china I selected in 1978, as a bride-to-be.

Alas, no strawberries, so a pretty ornament must do…

Sterling flatware is Towle, King Richard…

Crystal is Fair Lady by Lenox

You know I love pulling out the salt cellars for the formal, and sometimes, even for informal tablesettings. I just love an excuse to use these tiny, little salt spoons.

 

The first time I ever used a sugar scuttle was while staying in a Bed and Breakfast on vacation. I went on a mad search for one after that day and found one fairly quickly on eBay.  Since buying the first one, I’ve bought several more for gifts. When you find them, they are sometimes missing their little scoop. If it’s missing the scoop, just use a sugar shell spoon or little tongs.

Excuse the slightly askew flatware. I scooted it over to make way for an elbow while taking some pics of the centerpiece and forgot to scoot it back.

I have a chandelier story in me…one day I’ll get around to sharing it.   Pssst:  Shared my chandelier tale here:   Beeswax Candle Covers and SatinWrapped Bulbs for Chandeliers 

A few months ago, I was out antiquing and I came across this apothecary server. I immediately recognized it as a server I’d seen online at Neiman Marcus. I’d been drooling over it for over a year, but could never bring myself to pay the NM price.

It was at $189 in the antique store, and it looked brand new. But, I couldn’t remember how that compared to NM’s price…I thought it was less, but I wasn’t sure how much less. I told the clerk that I was interested in the piece, but really needed to check and see how their price compared to a brand new one at NM.

He apparently did not want me to leave the store with out it because he got on the phone with the owner and the price came down to $89. I said, YES, immediately, because I knew that was definitely better than Neiman Marcus. I had him pour water in it and I tested it before I bought it. It worked perfectly.

I was thrilled when I got home and pulled up the NM site and found it was going for $249, and that was “on sale.”  Yea! Good things do come to those who wait…sometimes.

Thanks for stopping by this evening for a tablescape with a little hint of Christmas. Looking forward to seeing all your beautiful tablescapes!

    The table is exquisite this week. I would really love to win that candleholder. That was the favorite thing I saw at their website that I entered on Monday. I signed up to follow Colonial candles.

  3. Susan,
    Wow.. your tablescape is stunning! I love the silver and the Christmas theme! The stemware just sparkles and the whole table shines. What an inspiration.

  4. Christi @ A Southern Life says

    Breathtaking. I'm not quite ready to start thinking about Christmas yet since everyone is coming here for Thanksgiving(hopefully around 20). However, I found myself humming Jingle Bells as I viewed your wonderful post!

    Christi @ A Southern Life

  5. Susan, I love your beautiful, sparkly table with all the white and crystal and silver. That tiered server is so pretty. Love it with the ornaments. I found a beverage server similar to yours at Home Goods this past summer. I think I got mine for $30 or $40! I was thrilled because I, like you, had seen them for much, much more.

    Love this candelabra from CC: http://www.colonialcandle.com/silver-triple-candleabra.aspx?categoryid=10

  6. Yvonne @ StoneGable says

    Susan, the silver tiered server is just breathtaking! What a wonderful idea. The silver with the red walls and the beautiful china- this tablescape is a delight. I have a silver server, and I am trying this idea for Christmas, too.
    Thank you for hosting- and your great give-away!
    Yvonne

  7. Lanterns are my favorite thing now….I cannot get enough of them! I love the jars with melting wax in them at the candle company! Thank you so much for sharing your world! Pamie G.

  8. Dining Delight says

    Susan, you have created a gorgeous tablescape with that centerpiece and in your fabulous dining room. With the two together, you do get a little sense of Christmas-to-come and I love that feeling! Great deal on that server, it is terrific!

    DD

  9. Pure magic, Susan! The rich red walls provide the perfect backdrop for your gorgeous silver and crystal. You've arranged everything so beautifully! No wonder you're the undisputed Queen of the Tablescape! 😉

    Long may she reign!

    Warmest regards,
    Bill

  10. Sue (Someone's Mom) says

    Susan, that table is just gorgeous. It makes me want to get out the Christmas things and get busy. The house we are in now has an open layout. The kitchen/dining/family rooms are all open. Your photos made me miss my formal dining rooms of houses past. Stunning!

    Sue

  11. Wow, xtra fancy – I feel under dressed…..Looks great !

  16. This is just beautiful, really it takes my breath away. I plan to visit several times and bring friends with me.

  17. Heidi@TheCraftMonkey says

    ok, so following along through the pictures I had so many comments (it's gorgeous!!) but then I got distracted by the strawberry fork…really? I have so much to learn!

  18. Susan, this is a stunner! The silver and crystal with red accents makes this all so elegant. Love the little strawberry fork. Guess we might all be looking for a tiered silver server now! It makes a perfect focal point for this exquisite table. Glad you found the server at a bargain. It too is stunning and so useful all year round.
    The lantern give away is terrific. Sign me up 3 times. I've subscribed for email and here is the link to a great item: http://www.colonialcandle.com/genuine-monkeez-picture-frame.aspx

    Don't have a tablescape of my own to share this week, but I'm heading out to see who is on the list this week.

  19. Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions says

    Your dining room is beautiful, Susan! Did you take these pictures without the flash on your camera? The post I added to Metamorphosis Monday was taken at night and I have to figure out how to turn the flash off.

    That multi-tiered silver server is gorgeous! Love the ornaments you put in it. Everything is gorgeous!

  20. Beautiful Susan! Love the RED walls and the touch of Christmas must mean it is time to start thinking tree, decorations, pretties all over the house!

  21. Hi Susan! Your table is so beautiful! I love your tiered piece and how you've placed Christmas in it! 🙂 Oh the drink server, I don't know what it's called, is so beautiful. I can just see it with some beautiful red punch in it! Love it all as usual!
    Be a sweetie,
    Shelia 😉

    and…I signed up for alerts.

  29. Honey, you have knocked my socks off with this one!! OUTSTANDING!! I love every inch of it. The red accents in your lovely red room are just PERFECT.
    I do all gold & white for Christmas but now you've got me rethinking…I may need to put in a pop of color like this.
    I love your bargain hunting. It makes them all the more special if you don't feel like you were taken to the cleaners with their purchase. I just LOVE a good sale. 😀

    Thank you for all the inspiration you provide & for allowing us to join you in this obsession over dishes. LOL

    fondly,
    ♥ Rett

    p.s. I, too, would love to enter the Colonial Candles lantern giveaway for today. Thanks for the chance to participate.

  30. Simple, Elegant, beautiful!

  31. It is so beautiful, Susan! What do you mean a hint of Christmas??..I am already singing Silver Bells..
    Wonderful table, no surprise there!

  32. A beautiful table as always — love the sugar scoop — I have two and use them for my demitasse spoons!

    You always have such pretty things and use them so cleverly.

  33. The White Farmhouse says

    This tablescape says everything that Christmas is, magical, snowy, glittery… I just love this!

  34. Hokie Grandma says

    Just beautiful! Lots of great ideas for my table come Christmas.

    Would love the lanterns also:)

  35. Styling by Coty Farquhar says

    Susan,

    You really scared me today when I saw your GORGEOUS Christmas setting, I know the year is travelling fast and when I realised that Christmas is really only around the corner, well, I did get worried.

    Your table setting looks so glamorous today, and you know, it is a shame to only use our xmas deorations once a year, as they are so beautiful and they look great on your table.

    I'm showing one of my old picnic race meeting settings this week. Come and have a look.

    xxx Coty

  36. tales from an oc cottage says

  38. Suzann @ The Olive Cottage says

    Such a beautiful tablescape. I love all the shimmery glamour. Truly the most lovely Christmasy table I have ever seen.

  39. Hi Susan, Absolutely lovely as always. What a perfectly elegant tablescape in the ever so elegant dining room. I would have had a hard time passing up the tiered silver server also, it is so gorgeous and will be perfect for your Holiday table.Christmas will be here before we know it. I am planning this years Thanksgiving table and I am also using some found silver items, so fun to treasure hunt. Hugs Kathysue

  40. the tablescape is absolutely gorgeous! the lantern is an awesome giveaway!

  41. First of all I adore your sparkly table, Susan! It is just gorgeous and makes me want to DECORATE!!!:) Now, I found 4 Halloween votive holdres, set of 4 but when I clicked on them it keeps saying the page can't be found??? So, I couldn't supply the link here, sorry! They are under candle accessories.
    YOur sugar scuttle is extraordinary: I always love seeing it when you post it. I will have to find me one!!!!The salt cellars are such fun too! The tiered server is fabulous! I love it especially with all the goodies you put on it! FABULOUS table! Now I will go see some more! Thanks so much for hosting this! I didn't get a table done this week: I am in the middle of a BIG life decision. XO, Pinky

  42. Really gorgeous table! I was especially interested in the sugar scuttle. I have my grandmother's although I never saw her use it as one. Each year she'd host her mother's 80+ year old birthday party, and she'd fill hers with nuts by the cake and punch! Nice to know it's real use.

  43. Howdy Susan!
    Like the table you've created. Very pretty and puts me in the Christmas mood.
    Glam on,
    d

  44. Bama Belle says

  102. I just came back from Colonial Candle. I'm not sure about the cut and pasting of an item so I will just tell you which one I loved! Since my daughter will be getting married in June, I went straight to the Wedding section of their website. There I saw the most beautiful Large Silver Pillar Lantern. It would be just perfect on the head table positioned right between the bride and groom!

  103. Just stunning…love the sugar server, just beautiful….and I really enjoyed looking into all the different ornaments and decorations you put on the tiered piece…great combination!

    I just love your formal red dining room. The silver, crystal, and touch of red is stunning.

    Being relatively new to blogging, I learn a little more each day. It's so nice to know such wonderful bloggers out there.

    I would love if you had a minute to stop by and see my tablescape!

    Have a wonderful day!

    Susan,
    I love these taper holders.

  116. victoria bassham says

    The laterns are so adorable!

    Here is the link to what I like: It's a sock monkey Santa Suit which would do perfectly for my daughter, she just got a sock monkey from My husband's aunt for Halloween
    http://www.colonialcandle.com/sock-monkey-santa-outfit.aspx

    I have already signed up for email promotions and I will mention this on my blog post….right now.

  117. Gorgeous Christmas setting! I'd switch out silver for gold to use with my antique china…maybe even switch to green! You've given me some great ideas. Especially the cute little votives–really make the whole table twinkle. And those lanterns would be perfect for a spring/summer table! And outdoors!

  118. Pat@Back Porch Musings says

    Beautiful table, Susan. Christmas will be here, before we know it! Time is flying by.

    Love the lantern giveaway!

    Now, I'm off to Horchow, see what I can see!

  119. The Elegant Roccoco Style Mirror Tray on Colonial Candle's site is amazing! Perfectly aged. I've been wanting something just like this for a long time. It would look great in a powder room/dressing room with pretty lotion and perfume bottles.

  120. I LOVE the lanterns! One would look perfect with my vision for my front bay window for Christmas!

    I also love the color scheme for your table. Very classic, very elegant!

  121. Cottage on the Hill says

    Love those lanterns!! Need one in my dining room.

  122. Simply stunning! Red is my favorite color, so you had me at hello. The mix of whites and silvers just pop and look so glamorous against the backdrop of the red walls. Great job! Love it!

  123. sweetjeanette says

I am in love with your dining room. It's so beautiful! I am somewhat of a new visitor to your blog and absolutely thrilled with your ideas and photos. Thank you!

You have such talent and the beautiful accessories you have and find, I wish I lived close by your house to run up and see what you come up with next! Congratulations Susan and may you continue creating beautiful tablescapes and sharing them with us. Love always.
    Fabby

  260. Just ran across this posting by you. Beautiful dining room! Anyway that you would share the wall red color? Thanks, Joe

    • Thanks, Joe! It’s called Raspberry Truffle and is an older Benjamin Moore color. A Benjamin Moore store should hopefully still be able to mix it up, I think it was a pretty popular red for them.

  261. warren giering says

    Hi Susan,
    I just ran across this post. What an amazing setting in such an amazing dining room. You have given a few new ideas.
