Jim Shore Santa Table for One

When Pat's daughter was here last week, I pulled out one of my Santas (just one of the "things" that I collect) and challenged both Pat and Jennifer to set a table using it. The Santa is from Jim Shore ("Delivering Joy") and is typical of his style. Since we used a table last week designed by Jennifer, it was Pat's turn. Here is what she came up with:

Over view of the table - Pat "wrapped" the place setting

Flatware is inexpensive Amethyst "Ditto" from Ikea

The "present" - Pat took the place setting and wrapped it like a gift.

Every time I saw one of these chargers, I picked it up - I don't know the name or manufacturer, but the first one I bought was from Ross Dress For Less. I found this one at a thrift shop. And I found the rest on eBay.

Glassware is from Pier 1 last year

This figurine is called "Delivering Joy"

Yes, Pat found matching tiny ornaments.....
