So yesterday was immediate family. I used Hester & Cook magnolia paper placemats, my old Lenox and my John Derian turkey napkins and John Derian mushroom plates. And, of course, my Goodwill turkey for fruit.

We are having 10-12 Christmas Eve. One given is, no tablecloth --- And I want to use paper placemats again. I only have eight mushroom plates, and I don't want to repeat that anyway.

I often use my woodland plates (I think of them as my Jojo plates because she made me buy them) for winter holidays, e.g. ... but both the white cabbagewear and these woodlland plates are in our apartment and it is a pain to wrap them up and move them.

And it is the wrong time of year for my "main" Maine plates,

So, I would like to some subset of these plates .for my Christmas table.

Also in love with these as a centerpiece.

Thinking about two schemes, both with a runner...Votes?

Please read: words to the effect of "traditional Christmas colors" will void your vote.
