This is a treasured marble chess set. Intense chess matches means less screen time for the kids! To make room for the meal we set this chess board aside.
A few favorite card games.
The puzzle we work on now until New Years, finishing it up on new years night or new years day.
Just for fun I added our pizza plates, salad plates, ice cream dishes and some bottled soda to kick off our game table. (I know, really healthy stuff)
Coca-cola in glass bottles with real sugar, instead of corn syrup!
I love the waffle cone detail on the sides of these cute little ice cream bowls. We make home made ice cream for them.

Such a clever tablescape to share! I like your tradition of a "game" table. Perfect way to spend time together during the holidays. ~ Sarah
Board and card games are such good family activities. We still play games with our adult children (and they still want us to let them win :) Nothing is better than coke in a glass bottle--it just tastes better!
My sons would love this...especially with the games and real bottled coke! Great idea..I will have to do this too! Such fun! Happy New Year! Miss Bloomers/Sonia
