Now, this may seems silly, but there are times that I definitely improvise. I’ve chosen to have it turn on in the evenings and go off 5 hours later…It looks like a snow globe when it is turned on. I purchased this candle at Lowe’s and it is so pretty! Here is a link to my A Lantern Centerpiece For All Seasons blog post just in case you’d like to take a look at what else I’ve created in the past year. I planned on reusing the big metal and mirrored tray that I’ve used to make every other centerpiece utilizing the lantern. Again, the first thing I did was to gather all of the accents that I thought I might use. In anticipation of how I wanted this centerpiece to look, I purchased a new Christmas tablecloth and built my design around that burgundy and white would be my accent colors.

This would be my first attempt at creating a Christmassy arrangement. I was really looking forward to creating a centerpiece for the kitchen table using a pretty lantern that I purchased last winter.

Next, I’ll show you how I decorated the window sills we have large windows that crank open and the sills are really wide, so I’ve had fun changing up the decor on them here is a link to my Ever Changing Window Decor blog post so you can see what else I’ve done in the past. It turned out to be a fun little piece one that can easily be picked up and moved out of the way when necessary.

Then I started to add all of the accent pieces starting with a piece of pine garland, cutting apart the red berries bunch and sticking it in here and there and finishing off with burlap poinsettia flowers (they had a clip on the back, so I clipped them to the pine garland at each corner). I cut off some stems for the big bunch of red berries and used floral wire to hold it closed. I decided to made a candle ring to go around the candle first. The first thing I do when I go to make anything like this is to gather all of the materials I *think* I might use. So let’s start with the kitchen island arrangement. Also, I’ll be showing you how I decorated my kitchen window sills–I change the decor on the sills with every season. In this entry, I will be highlighting a couple of centerpieces that I made, one, a lantern centerpiece for the kitchen table, and two a centerpiece for the kitchen’s island. Thanks for sharing the Christmas ideas.Continuing on with showing y’all how I am decorating our home for Christmas I’ve been working for almost a solid week on the rooms that span the back of our home (family room, kitchen, kitchen eating area, and the staircase–all of which are completely open to one another). I also like the look and simplicity of the baskets or buckets/tubs instead of a tree skirt. I am thinking of using all non shiny, unbreakable ornaments such as burlap bows, styrofoam snowballs, small pinecones, dried orange slices, twig bundles, wood slices or ornaments, etc. I have a short needled, twiggy tree with widely spaced branches that I have used for years. I also have a new cat who at 6 months old is a real “getter into things” so I think all my glass ornaments and old twisted tin icicles will stay boxed up this year as well as other breakables. My house features a lot of white and open space I want to work with. I have used red, white and silver ornaments with red velvet bows, greenery and pine cones for quite a while and want to do something a little different and more minimal/natural this year so this post was good inspiration. Thanks for sharing all these intriguing ideas on decorating with non-traditional Christmas colors.
