The White Luncheon

Before all of the color infused decor of the Christmas Season took hold, I did an all white tablescape.
It was a visually relaxing moment, almost like a snow day when you are forced to stay put, light a fire and just be still.

I have visions of a hot hearty soup with

 warm from the oven crusty bread

I decided not to use a tablecloth or placemats

adding to the simplicity of the setting

The flatware is my everyday.

The chargers are my old favorites.

With all white, you are drawn to the texture

rather than the color and pattern.

The little pine cone salt and pepper shakers

add just a little more texture

to stimulate the eye

The little birds under glass are ceramic

however the nest is a real 

 found in my garden at the end of the season

I think they like to be photographed

without the glass dome -

you can see them better here

Another angle allowing a better view of the details
