in Do it yourself

This buffet is my interpretation of Nester’s interpretation of David Jimenez’s tablescape. Did you get that? I didn’t have two candlesticks of different heights so I just raised one up on a little box. Which lamp do you like better? Chunky lamp or skinny lamp?

Lighting candles all over (mostly because the batteries in the flashlights were all dead) and firing up the fireplace so my munchkins would stay warm. In proper Laura [...]
