Proud Peacock

My sister and daughter-in-law were visiting one afternoon,

 and together they arranged this table just for you!

It all started with "the" peacock.

I've had him for about 8 years and he's always around somewhere,

 sitting proudly, displaying his beautiful feathers.

He's made of metal with glitter sprinkled here and there.

I purchased him from a home decor store and he was actually part of a display.

I wish I had a picture...it was stunning.

The in-store-decorator was making a Christmas display with a mannequin.

The tree was actually the mannequin's "dress"...

it was gorgeous.

There were peacock feathers here, there, everywhere.

There were turquoise and gold ornaments...

and then there were metal peacocks tucked in the boughs of the tree.

I should have bought two instead of one.

I haven't seen them around since.

Ugh...the days before blogging.

I'm so much wiser now...haha.

Well, here he is...proudly welcoming you to the table.

Enjoy!
