I am so excited to share my Christmas dining room this year because I am joining a group of very talented bloggers for a Farmhouse Christmas! And I have been collecting galvanized and grain sack goodies over the last few months along with some special vintage touches just for this occasion!

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Farmhouse Christmas Tablescape And…here is the result! I wanted a simple look with lots of texture and natural accents with muted shades of the traditional Christmas red and green.

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Farmhouse Christmas Tablescape …lots of Christmas color tucked in a great old vintage galvanized tool box that I found at the antique fair in Braselton, Georgia this fall! It was love at first sight…and it was only $20! Woo hoo! It was fresh out of someone’s barn…and it had paint splatters and numbers written in Sharpie that I had to remove...

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Farmhouse Christmas TablescapeOnce again, I am using my go-to plates for a small gathering…my Chris Madden cream Felice dinnerware…a $10 Goodwill find for a set of four…nested on grapevine wreaths as chargers. I decided to use my Gorham Octette pewter goblets…perfect complement to the galvanized centerpiece and a great farmhouse look. The wine glasses were a Goodwill find several years ago.

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Christmas Dough Bowl On the buffet you will find my grandmother’s dough bowl all dressed for a farmhouse Christmas, too…with birch candles, pine cones and faux cranberries…a very easy transition from my fall dough bowl.

CONFESSIONS OF A PLATE ADDICT Farmhouse MantelI have already shown you my farmhouse Christmas mantel as well! Can you tell I am all about things galvanized and decorated with grain sack-style ribbons this year?
