Seasonal table - winter 2015

One of the things that I struggled with before putting together the winter seasonal table was how I should go about it. Usually I would get the kids to help me, but it never quite fit into our schedules - the little ones are small and napping is such a priority.

I thought about putting it together one afternoon, but in the end, I decided I would put down the foundation, so to speak, and then I would let them create something that we could display on the table.

...we made snowflakes.

If you remember I used a brown cloth - a symbol of the earth (and) warmth as the base for our Autumn table. This season's base is a no-brainer...white for snow, of course. I am all about simplicity, so we kept it as simple as possible.

The only thing that's missing is our book of the month - I have to pick it up from the library.
