A simple decorating idea. Select a round or square glass dish. Place as many crystal or silver candle holders as will fit (3 or 5) in the container. Place inexpensive glass ornaments (perhaps pair shaped from the Dollar store) around the candle holders -- all going in the same directions. Add red candles to the candle sticks (or the color of your choice), stick a little piece of evergreen or bush from your yard and berries to add color and you have a lovely centerpiece for your table.
Yes, greenery is everywhere- and some people would say it is more like... selective pruning!

That looks great. Another way to save money is to use greenery from your garden (or your neighbors or the local office park ((my aunt does this))).

Wow, that is neat and so pretty. It won't cost much either. Thanks for sharing it. HUGS

Very beautiful, Mitzi. I am going to go to St. Vinnie's resale shop and get the glass dish that I saw there, the box of shiny ornaments, and the mismatched candle sticks and make your arrangement! Thank you for the inspiration!
