Ideally, the flowers should be low enough that the guests can see each other and have a conversation over the flowers. Tall arrangements would look better on a corner table where they are not apt to be knocked over.

Nice chandelier and table. I actually think you could have gone fuller on the flowers. Hope the party is great.

Christine, THANK you, I was so frustrated with the e-mail notification and the whole new format in general ... like reading your note on how to turn it on 6 days after you posted, and reading Cindy's note 3 days later ... Cindy, you have no idea how many times the same thing happened to me, no worry, you can watch the whole episode on this website. Hugs, Karen

Karen Thank-you so much for the Holiday wishes, here is wishing you great blessings in the New Year. You will not believe that I fell asleep before I saw you on RMS! It doesn't show until 10 p.m. here and I was trying so hard to stay awake I saw your chaise and the next thing I new the next program was on! Do you know when it is going to show again? I think it is ususally on earlier in the day on it's other showing... oh this getting old is really something. I see Christine explained how to get your email notification turned on although since I changed computers I can't get onto the email that is attached to RMS... Shoot.. Well, Happy New Year dear friend. Hugs, Cindy

Hi Karen! Thanks for your visit and lovely comment in my Christmas tablescape for 2. You can turn you email notification on by going to your "My Portfolio" and then go to "Settings" and the option to turn it on is there...Christine

Karen dear it has taken me two days to get signed in here again! I am really excited to see you on the RMS show. It is tonight right? I don't always watch it unless there is someone I "know" on. Congratulations on the acknowledgement of your great style and talent. You have a great Christmas and I am looking forward to seeing you on the small screen. Hugs, Cindy

Karen dear, how are you? Going around and marking my favorites gave me the perfect opportunity to drop in and say hi! I know how busy you are, hope everything is going really well and you are preparing for a wonderful Christmas. Hugs, Cindy

Oh your light is just beautiful!

Oh I love your tall centerpieces. They are really great cause you are not obscuring the view of the people sitting across you. Love the fresh flowers! Is the dinner party over? How did it go? I bet your guests loved the tablescape. Thanks for coming to my dining room dreamy! I love your comment!

Karen it is so nice to hear from you.. You've often been on my mind. Oh I think I shared that I have some on going health issues nothing life threatening just slows me down and makes me vunerable to illness when I get over tired. I actually have been really busy with work I realize how blessed I am especially right now so many are in such a bad spot. Well dear I hope this finds you well. Love ya Cindy
