If you’re entertaining at home this Christmas, try these easy Christmas centrepiece ideas from www.midwestliving.com.
Cranberry candles
For a simple yet stunning centrepiece, place five votive candles (in a variety of Christmas colours) in a line down a red rectangular serving dish. Fill the rest of the dish with cranberries, garnish with a few pine twigs and dust with artificial snow.
Holiday tiers
Display favourite Christmas cards on a tiered stand along with artificial greens, small presents and ornaments.
Balls of fun
Create a colourful centrepiece by filling a silver bowl with an assortment of brightly coloured ornaments. Place the bowl on a cake stand and cover the extra space on the cake stand with holly and evergreens.
Sparkling accents
Curiosities such as milk starbursts grab attention in a centrepiece of pinecones and greens. Repurpose serving pieces as candleholders and tiny planters to add charming interest.
Red and white cheer
Carnations top a rectangular glass vase covered with candy canes. Attach candy canes to the vase with a hot-glue gun; anchor flowers in floral foam. If you like, spray canes with coats of clear acrylic spray to avoid stickiness. Finish with ribbon and mint.
Clear glass sparkle
Create a lovely centrepiece with an assortment of clear or lightly tinted glass bottles. Fill some with small glass balls, and add a sprig of boxwood or other greenery. Everyday white dishes look fresh and elegant with a coloured linen napkin on top.
