Oh What Fun it is to Ride in a One Horse Open Sleigh!

I set a new everyday table for us when I found the tartan plaid chargers at Michaels!!! I am in LOVE with these chargers!!!  I had the runner, napkins and dishes so the chargers are all that is new! This little sleigh ornament works great as a place card holder! I didn't use place cards on this table but have used the sleigh for that in the past.
 The napkin rings are from Cracker Barrel this year.
 I started out with the round placemats but changed them out as you will see in the nighttime shots. The dinner plate and salad plate are from Walmart; their Better Homes and Gardens line.
 Close up of the salad plate. The salad plates come in a large variety of designs! I think I have them all:)


 I placed my snowflake votive holders on a snowflake.
 I love these flocked trees, they move around the house.
 I made this centerpiece several years ago.
 I love these dinner plates and have 6 but haven't been able to find more this year:( Does anyone know if Walmart still has them?

 I realized I had these red placemats and really like them with the runner. I also am using the green flatware.
 There is a little sparkle to them and there is a sparkly line in the runner too.


 The lights from the tree are reflected in the window.

    What a beautiful table setting! I like the plaid mixed with the Christmas dishes. The little sleds are adorable too. If you're looking for those plates at Walmart, I would recommend looking for them online if you haven't already. Sometimes they sell things online that they don't have in their store.

    Amazing all the ways tartan plaid can be incorporated into a table setting. It seems to work for all seasons, too.
