I've been known to use plywood myself to make an impromptu table, covered with a tablecloth! They sure come in handy! And your missing tablecloth will likely turn up a day late, lol... or at least that is my kind of luck :) Enjoyed my visit here today, and your place setting looks amazing for the big day coming up! :) Marilyn @ MountainTopSpicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00600290895531484438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6737531804022285705.post-1498791250178867992015-12-16T16:10:35.789-05:002015-12-16T16:10:35.789-05:00I can't believe how well the colors work toget...I can't believe how well the colors work together - the table came out lovely!

We are 20 before everyone got married and had babies of their own...now we are closer to 30 and growing. I set several tables and we squeeze some years, other years, we do a buffet and it's sit where you please. I just love a full house no matter where everyone is seated! :) Merry Christmas!!Kim https://www.blogger.com/profile/15445291034631735026noreply@blogger.com
