What does “visions of sugar plums danced in their heads” look like to you? I have started this tradition with my grandkids 2 years running...that I create a sugar plum breakfast for them in my dining room and they LOVE It!
First they get to decorate my little white tree with all kinds of bright colored ornaments I’ve collected through the years. You can see the tree last year HERE
Then it’s my turn to bring on the sugar plum fairy dust if you will. I bring out pink glittered reindeer, baubles, and shiny balls, white glittered garland and decorations of all kinds to create this fantasy of visions of sugar plums! Pictures from last year are HERE
I hang multi colored ornaments from my chandelier with fishing line to hover over the table.
I saved all my paper snowflakes that I cut out from last years Sugar Plum Fairy dining room and attached them to the ceiling with tape with the help of My youngest daughter Emily and our good friend Isabella!
I used a combination of pink and turquoise salad plates laid on top of my white dinner plates to bring in the colors of the room.
All things silver with lots of glittery type decor mixed with turquoise blue and hot pink combined with hints soft pink and robins egg blue all on a canvas of a white tablecloth make for a pretty “Visions of Sugar Plums” dancing in their heads tablescape.
The next morning they fly down the stairs to see what gift is sitting on their plates from Grandma Ree Ree (my nickname) and Pappa
There is nothing like creating a fantasy world for my little grandkids….I love every minute of it!
