An ornament centrepiece is a fun and festive way to decorate your holiday table. This DIY project is easy to customise and can be adapted to fit any holiday theme.

  2. Add the Ornaments: Place the ornaments within the greenery. Vary the size, colour, and shape of the ornaments to create visual interest.
  3. Incorporate Candles: If desired, add candles to your centrepiece. Place the candles within the greenery or on the tray.
  4. Finalise the Centrepiece: Once you're happy with the arrangement, adjust the greenery and ornaments as needed.

Tips:

  • Choose a Theme: Select ornaments that match a specific theme, such as vintage, rustic, or modern.

  • Add Personal Touches: Incorporate family heirlooms or personalised ornaments to create a unique centrepiece.
  • Layer the Look: Create depth by layering different elements, such as ornaments, greenery, and candles.
  • Safety First: Always use candles in a safe manner. Keep them away from flammable materials and extinguish them before leaving the room.
