Sometimes, decorating is so simple it's scary. Check out this plethora of tabletop ideas from BHG.comFill a martini glass with ornaments or just a single ornament, for a festive, fun look. Fill mini glasses like these from Beau-coup, stack on a festive cake platter, and send them home with guests as party favors.
Terra-cotta pots in a coat of white paint, create a quick arrangement of fresh greens and a gazing ball.
Simple apothecary jars filled with fruit and ornaments are elegant and timeless.
Hang onto those burnt-out bulbs! Place them into a glass jar and gently place a smaller glass of water in the center. Place floating candles in the glass of water and light.
I love cloches because of their versatility. Display your favorite ornaments like these, on a silver tray.
Fill a crystal compote with mini pinecones and ornaments and top with a large bow. Add fake snow to take it over the top.
Don't let the humble peppermint-candy topiary fool you. Set on silver candleholders designed for pillar candles, these will be the talk of the party. Or try large ornaments set on crystal candleholders for a similar effect.
Great ideas! Thanks for sharing them.
