10 Days Until Christmas: Festive Centerpieces

TEN DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS. Holy Moly. My list of things to do seems longer now than it did a week ago!

Our Christmas decorations have been up for a couple of weeks now, but I’m still missing a centerpiece for the table (I’m also hosting Christmas Breakfast at my house). Here are some easy centerpieces that still look elegant and festive.

Supplies you may need:

    • Jars
    • Vases of varying sizes
    • Candles
    • Ornaments
    • Cranberries
    • Flowers
    • Pine cones
    • Pine branches/sprigs
    • Ribbon (anyone else LOVE ribbon?)

Ornaments

I really love the look and simplicity of using ornaments for your centerpieces. Plus, ornaments are very versatile because it is easy to find different colors and shapes to accent your holiday home. Below are a few ideas. You can use all different vases, dishes, or large jars; pair with fruit, tinsel, or other accents; even place a candle(s) in the center of a platter of ornaments.

Pine and Cranberries (and other natural items)

Creating centerpieces with pine cones, pine sprigs, or cranberries is a natural way to spruce up your home with something beautiful from nature. If using candles, please make sure no items are close enough to burn/catch fire!

Flowers

Pick up a bouquet of mixed holiday arrangements (or a bouquet of roses) from your local grocery store and arrange in paper and ribbon decorated vases; order a bouquet of flowers from your florist and arrange in vases filled with cranberries, ornaments, glitter, or other accents; or go the simple route and arrange those floral beauties in a favorite vase.
