Christmas Dinner, with the help of Stampin' Up!

I always like to add some personal, creative touches to setting the table for special guests.  Nothing could be more special than my guests for Christmas dinner.  We enjoyed having my mother-in-law, both our children and all the grandchildren.  It was a wonderful day.   

I made elf treat bags for all the boys, a Santa treat bag for Olive, and square pillow box treat bags for the adults.  I kept them all very simple, as I had minimal time to make them.  Everyone loved them.
They had good treats inside, too:)  Did you notice the same stamp set that was used on the stocking charms in this post? (Click here to see my previous post.)
The boys helped me set the table.
I love using the battery operated (with remote control:) candles to keep everything pretty and safe.  Tiny pre-lit trees in each corner and a lit wreath in the window completed the warm glow of Christmas.  The beautiful garland down the center of the table picks up the glow of the candles, wreath and little trees.

Square Pillow Box Party Favors

Before I share more cards from my Christmas Retreat, I want to show you the party favors that everyone got with their lunch.  Even though we were all about Christmas in my studio, it was still Fall in my dining room, so I kept the lunch favors within a Fall theme.  I love how they turned out.
I made them in 3 colors.  Each person got one in Soft Suede, Mossy Meadow or Rich Razzleberry.  I've already given away all the Rich Razzleberry favors.
Here are some ideas from Stampin' Up! for using the Pillow Box Thinlits.  I love how they cut off the top of the middle one and used it to hold 3X3" cards!

Here's a peek at my Fall centerpiece.  I love decorating for Fall almost as much as decorating for Christmas.
With my Christmas Open House just around the corner (November 1) I am already starting today to turn my studio completely into Christmas.  This is the crazy time of year for me when my porch and upstairs are beautiful Fall and my studio becomes all Christmas.  It's pretty fun... and a bit crazy!
