The girls are home from college so I thought I would celebrate with a Pre-Thanksgiving Brunch Tablescape. My friends and clients over the years who know me know that it is not out of the ordinary for me to make normal family meals into something extraordinary. And why not? I never understood why people would only go through the trouble of a tablescape only when they have company. You can do these things for you and your family. Our families are the special occasion. :o)
Well today’s the day. I will be assembling the mantel arrangement for the Sonnenberg Flower Show. I will take it late this afternoon to set it up in the mansion. Hopefully it will turn out like the picture I have in my head.
Today I arranged the flowers for Sonnenburg Flower Show buffet table. I mainly used the same flowers I purchased for the mantel. I chose a fallish container I already had to give height. The traditional arrangement was a breeze to put together. I was really happy with the way it turned out.
Today I am meeting with our local florist to choose my flowers.
Today I visited Sonnenberg to take pictures of the mantel and get a feel of the room. They call it the “Great Hall” for a reason. It is two stories high, the fireplace dominates the room for sure.
