The prancing and pawing of each little hoof. . .
Wherever the reindeer landed, they are now on our farm table!
I haven't officially started decorating for Christmas. . . .
These beauties were unboxed in our garage over a month ago. . . .
I knew I wanted to use them for the holidays, so I set them aside.
After stumping my toe and turning the rascals over for the hundredth time,
I brought them inside. . . .
I absolutely love beeswax candles lit at night--
another thing I like about the "old days". . . .
I quickly grabbed a woven shawl for the table. . . .
then nestled a pottery bowl inside two twig wreaths.
A few more additions and I was done. . . .
Plain and Simple. . . .
Not sure how long the reindeer will be staying. . . .After all, they have a big Christmas Eve job to do. . . .But, just like Santa, they are AWAYS welcome at the Farm!!!!!
from my farmhouse to yours. . . .

I hope they stay for a little while as they are perfect for your centrepiece!
ReplyDeleteYou are inspiring me to figure out a Christmas centerpiece for our table. The table gets a lot of use, so it can be hard, but it would be nice for Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYou have taken farmhouse style to a whole new level, absolutely love this!! Love those deer!! xo
ReplyDeleteThese reindeer candleabra are really cute! I like the simplicity of the whole setting. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful reindeer. I have a set that I am using also....but I can't remember to get candles :)
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see your Christmas decor.
what a great deal on the reindeer, they are gorgeous! i like simple too...my husband and i are so opposite, he is gaudy like his mother (did i say that?!) and just like more and more and more, yuck! he's not happy until EVERYTHING is put up, no matter how tacky it looks :/ that's why i do it when he's not at home and hide the rest :D
ReplyDeleteHow pretty. I love those deer. Sweet. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteOh how I love your tablescape. I have a serious reindeer obession this time of year so you pretty much imagine how much I'm drooling over yours. Love the idea of the wreath inside the bowl too. Very farmhouse rustic - I'm loving it.
ReplyDeleteI have one tiny reindeer on my table, but nothing like your beauties. They are so unique and that makes them special.
