Hi whitelinen and MTH, I also passed on the sleigh, though the silver looked great. The gold looks too brassy & shiny in the pictures. I have decided to stop with the Christmas décor for awhile. I'll be watching Lisa tonight and biting my nails, I'm sure, trying not to order something. I've already ordered the Fruit Teardrops and the grape picks, enough. {#emotions_dlg.scared}

Me too lucy. I think I'm in a decorating rut. It just doesn't bring the joy it once did.

Thinking I will take some time off and hopefully come back strong for Christmas.

Kitty, yes, definitely the grape clusters are in the sleigh, can't remember anything else but must be the picks also.

Decided to order both grape clusters and mercury lighted strand and see what looks best . It still looks to me that maybe both the grapes and light strand may be in sleigh blog post . If Lisa said it is the grapes though then it should be.,

I went HL after work to see if they had anything to compare to "the sleigh"

So they didn't really, but still... I bought a silver/gold, covered-in-iridescent-glitter sled.They only had two. I know I'd be kicking myself later if I didn't at least see how it compares to "the sleigh" I'll probably keep both. LOL I have a clear acrylic sled also for my glass furniture dining room.

I just can't wait to start decorating this year! {#emotions_dlg.blushing}

I ordered the gold sleigh this morning then went back later and cancelled it. I just don't need anymore Christmas decorations. Now, if the silver was available I would have said what the heck! {#emotions_dlg.laugh} The silver is fabulous! The detail on the silver shows up so much better and that is what makes it special to me. Maybe it's a bad picture of the gold, not sure.

Can't wait to hear the reviews and hopefully some pics of how everyone is using it.

I am so bummed out that I missed the sleigh{#emotions_dlg.blush} I went to bed with my tablet on my pillow waiting to get it and I fell asleep. Only the gold is available, but the silver was perfect. Wish there were more pics of the gold to see what it looks like. Congrats to those of you who got it - what fun!

I think you are right, I just didn't know there was a mercury glass light strand, but just looked at the sleigh again, and I think it is in there.

Looks like most people ordered the silver. Since I ordered the silver and the gold I will let you all know how the gold looks. Now I have to see what I can put in this sleigh. I can't wait for 9:00 pm to come already for Lisa's decorating show!

SOLD OUT

I don't think we will see them without the SOLD OUT sign across them!

Beautiful show tonight! The set looks so gorgeous. I was in our Von Maur today and their trees are styled out in a similar fashion, but their ornaments are more expensive.

The tortoise goblets on the DR table on the set are from Pier One.

I found this antique sleigh @ Wind & Weather. Very similar in size to Lisa's - 13-1/2"L x 5"W x 6-1/2"H. It is priced @ 29.99, S&H 8.99. I think the S&H is high, but hopefully packed well & comes intact.
