Christmas Place Setting

Oh, What a Place Setting

This beautiful, classically furnished dining room possesses luscious coral-colored walls and billowy silk draperies―a warm and welcoming background for staging an unforgettable dinner for eight. To prepare for the special evening, designer Carole Sullivan created a variety of innovative floral accompaniments using various shades of green from pale celadon to deep jade. Consider all of Carole’s creations―including her lush tabletop garland of fresh flowers, the wreaths and napkin rings that she covered in hydrangea blossoms, and the lengths of sheer fabric that she tied to the chair backs―and choose one or more for decorating your home.
