Cranberry Creations:

Cranberries are fabulous for tablescapes during the holidays because of their vibrant red shade. They can be used as a small accent to a larger centerpiece, strung as garland, or piled up on a tray or in a bowl to add a lively splash of color.

Effortless Ornament Decor:

Since ornaments come in all different shapes and sizes, you can use them lots of different ways. If you’re low on table space try hanging ornaments OVER your table instead. Not only is the look dramatic and beautiful, but it can also help fill empty space, making your eating area appear more cozy and welcoming.

Arranging ornaments in jars, vases or around candles and greenery is the perfect way to set a holiday themed tablescape, without having to actually take the time to make anything. This technique is completely effortless, yet it will have your guests feeling like you went all out in the decorating department.
