Kids Candy and mini trees

Cozy

  1. Fill a wooden dough bowl with pinecones and candles.
  2. Wrap a candle cluster in a plaid scarf base.
  3. Line up mini bottle-brush trees.

Natural

  1. Run a fresh evergreen garland down the table.
  2. Add dried orange slices and cinnamon sticks.
  3. Cluster red berries around glass hurricanes.

Glam

  1. Fill glass bowls with gold ornaments.
  2. Use mercury glass votives in groups.
  3. Tie velvet ribbon around taper candles.

Modern

  1. Choose an all-white palette of candles and ornaments.
  2. Display a single sculptural branch in a tall vase.
  3. Use a mirror tray to double the candle glow.

Tip: Keep candles in hurricanes or deep holders so flames sit below the greenery, never leave them burning unattended, and use LED candles around children and pets. Some festive plants such as mistletoe and holly berries are toxic, so keep them out of reach.
