A favorite table centerpiece of mine is filling the middle of the table with candy, fruit and nuts. It is beautiful and when the meal is over, everyone loves to linger, laugh and nibble.



Who doesn't love the decadence of never ending chocolate? Lovely and yummy.



If you choose to share shelled nuts, don't forget to put out a nutcracker or two. It is fun to watch your family and guests interact and crack them for each other.

Limes in glass containers, fresh flowers, make your own garland out of any ornaments and have a wonderful color theme.



Vary the heights and decorate your own candles.

Shake up your color theme a bit. All golds? Even turquoise, plums or grays can be gorgeous.

Got something you love or is special to you?



Make it special by highlighting it. Add a little something with it!

Could it be simplier? Try holly, berries, a candy cane...



Try with a dab of spray paint or hair spray and glitter....

Why use one, when larger groups can be simple, yet create a wonderful feeling and impact.

Saw this in New York City. So simple to just cut a tree in your yard or the bottom branches off of your tree. Add a little artificial berries for color!





Same concept as above in a planter. Get the height in the middle with Red Dogwood, sticks or Pussywillow as shown.





Notice the groups of birch branches tied with a ribbon...

Darling pinecone garland is easy to make and string.



Try a ribbon in any color. Add cranberries, popcorn or cinnamon sticks, too.



Any color ribbon, add jewels or beads, spray paint gold or silver.
