I really enjoy changing things up! Plus I have these wonderful plates from Walmart that I have seen all over blogland and wanted to use them too. I got the bird design ones last year and new ones ths year. Joe's favorite bird is the male cardinal so that is his place setting.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyxQC68b-jap6EqnDb2DktAnr6ney034U0fPCLr7XRcZX5-OP3pE_AXw2bho7KZLZV_pMicmVdSxy7nyMtMaKAdKviszqggDVrQiCab_38Nz5oYPM_GZBC-4_rcnjNlx49iFq-PDhpCK8/s1600/IMG_1310.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyxQC68b-jap6EqnDb2DktAnr6ney034U0fPCLr7XRcZX5-OP3pE_AXw2bho7KZLZV_pMicmVdSxy7nyMtMaKAdKviszqggDVrQiCab_38Nz5oYPM_GZBC-4_rcnjNlx49iFq-PDhpCK8/s640/IMG_1310.JPG" width="480" /></a></div> The chickadees are for me. I used my favorite red tablecloth embroidered with white and then layered on a square wicker charger, a white ceramic charger, a red dinner plate and the bird plates. They are then topped with a tiny pot that is stuffed with greens, berries and pinecones. All these things are what you would find in the woods if you took a nice walk. We have beautiful walking trails here that we enjoy very much.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgS_yCdtYupWjHdxg0BXMzWYMvA0fs_arjSaxeIS6n0V1hbiunievkRQqFfNCR2nv10NT5dMqHQZTNBn3vn2UVrq-cOjR30SClXwIPdaF68hJWk_DFM9DGXSIbXd4fZDyxWJjSkIm-LQSw/s1600/IMG_1312.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgS_yCdtYupWjHdxg0BXMzWYMvA0fs_arjSaxeIS6n0V1hbiunievkRQqFfNCR2nv10NT5dMqHQZTNBn3vn2UVrq-cOjR30SClXwIPdaF68hJWk_DFM9DGXSIbXd4fZDyxWJjSkIm-LQSw/s640/IMG_1312.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> I gathered a red and a white napkin into a twiggy napkin ring for even more texture.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHW7t-ZoSr5nvGgHuerHWVahlA714dcfL9jFT9f-J3_Hj8U4JhoWYNNUFE1o0lGvfqC4lZ5WzkyvNASp4Fsh8lmRQ4NuRTjRMvJHs0AB0-UOcu_po0ZPnrn0TPMdlal-_Mabifflof7ZM/s1600/IMG_1313.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhHW7t-ZoSr5nvGgHuerHWVahlA714dcfL9jFT9f-J3_Hj8U4JhoWYNNUFE1o0lGvfqC4lZ5WzkyvNASp4Fsh8lmRQ4NuRTjRMvJHs0AB0-UOcu_po0ZPnrn0TPMdlal-_Mabifflof7ZM/s640/IMG_1313.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> Real pinecones and pine cone candles have landed on this table too.

This one on the left of the mantle is a Polish santa. She would reserch and see what clothes they would have worn and she sent a paper with each Santa explaing everything. He has a tapestry wrap under his coat and carries a star. He also carries a real doll from Krakaw, you can read it under the stand! This was our first purchase from her, since Joe is Polish.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVLjIZzAoUf4mjknG7wCSZKSYS-WADGVkEhkrdQ3B-8g7vIYdWw-5Plic1onHpEtNHCVSFp9_1__5VgT2B1vNgqU8tLH__vSBpWn9mMT37b24BhKMqCevSYXCNxRnyVXm3Lybe6AyM4F8/s1600/IMG_0835.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVLjIZzAoUf4mjknG7wCSZKSYS-WADGVkEhkrdQ3B-8g7vIYdWw-5Plic1onHpEtNHCVSFp9_1__5VgT2B1vNgqU8tLH__vSBpWn9mMT37b24BhKMqCevSYXCNxRnyVXm3Lybe6AyM4F8/s640/IMG_0835.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> This is another Polish Santa that we bought for Joe's parents.
