Christmas 08 - Instalment 1 - Soni's table

Christmas '08 started off as going to be , not the usual whole extended family thing, but rather just us and Oumie, with minimal fuss and something tasty but with minimal effort. Well as always....it changed and ended up as being, to quote from that ubiquitous 'Dinner for one' Old Years classic, "The same procedure as every year, James"

As there was multiple dishes and lots to post on, I'll be doing this in segments over the next two days or so.

Instalment 1 - Soni's Table

The colour theme this year was Black and White, with Cerise Pink.

The details of the Look:

Black and White sateen stripe table cloth.

Black and White Polka dot and Pink Rose napkins, layered alternately by place setting, held together with either a pink bauble or faux diamond ring serviette ring.

Clear glass and black cut glass drink ware, with white antique dinner ware, and silver cutlery.

Metallic Black and Silver crackers for the Boys and whimsical pink fairies for the Girls.

Pink double dip candles in silver plates with pink and black jelly-beans, and pink foil wrapped chocolate truffles and party favours.

A centre piece of Cerise Gerbera's floating in a glass bowl with black pebbles.

It blew everyone away, as always! Soni is a creative genius!
