Tabletop Confessions #KmartHoliday #CBias

I have a confession… I really can’t decorate for Christmas.  Seriously… I can’t.  I live with the original Scrooge McDuck (flashback to Duck Tales… remember that show?)  It pretty much takes all the unicorn magic I can muster to get him to drag the tree and box of ornaments up from the basement each year.  But if I tried to put garland around the banister it may push him over the edge.

So my task of running to Kmart to find the perfect Christmas table top decor was going to be a difficult one.  I had to get something that was simple and functional for Brian and screamed “I LOVE Christmas” for me.  I was a beginning to think that becoming a brain surgeon may be easier.  Thankfully there were so many options at my local Kmart… My worries were for nothing.  I even had a lot of fun shopping. (Which is basically like a normal person saying that breaking their arm was fun.  I usually don’t like shopping.)  There were lots of sparkly and shiny objects to keep me entertained.  And I was able to find the PERFECT items.

 I was able to get a pretty tablecloth, candles, 3 glass goblets, scented pine cones (WHAT???  They smell so freaking good), a place mat (or a display mat as I will use it), and a glass votive for a KILLER DEAL.  Like about half of what I expected to spend because of sale prices.

Now comes the real challenge… Turning this table into a holiday masterpiece that both Brian and I will LOVE.  But with all the stuff I scored it shouldn’t be that hard… right?

I guess we will all find out on the 12th when I post the finished project.  Wish me luck.  I need it.
