Finishing touch ideas…

Glass Jars

  • Elevate your Christmas table’s ambiance by incorporating glass jars filled with baubles and fairy lights.
  • Choose clear glass jars of various sizes and shapes, ensuring they match the overall aesthetic of your table.
  • Begin by selecting a collection of miniature ornaments, baubles, or decorative trinkets that align with your gold and teal theme.
  • Gently nestle these baubles inside the glass jars. Consider mixing colors and shapes to create visual interest.
  • To add a magical glow, intertwine delicate fairy lights within the baubles. Battery-operated fairy lights work well for this purpose.
  • Position the lights strategically to ensure they illuminate the baubles and create a captivating display.
  • These glass jars filled with baubles and fairy lights can serve as stunning centerpieces or accent pieces along the length of the table.
  • Place them atop mirrored or reflective surfaces to enhance the twinkling effect and create depth.

Angels

  • Start by incorporating magnolia angels as elegant and timeless additions to your table decor.
  • Place them strategically as centerpieces or at each place setting to add a touch of sophistication.
  • You may also choose to add complimentary colours of angels, we think burgundy works particularly well.
  • Consider using angel-themed place cards with guests’ names for a personalised touch.

Candles

  • Candles are quintessential to creating a warm and inviting atmosphere at your Christmas table.
  • Consider placing tealights or candleholders to complement your color scheme.
  • Arrange candles of varying heights down the center of your table for an enchanting glow.
  • Opt for scented candles in seasonal fragrances to add an extra layer of sensory delight to your holiday dinner.
  • Add faux flowers or dried pinecones to add extra interest to your candle arrangement.

  • Choose artificial poinsettia blooms or other flowers that coordinate with your theme.
  • Create floral arrangements in vases as elegant centerpieces.
  • Drape garlands along the table’s edge for a festive border, or use them as table runners.
  • Incorporate ornaments, pinecones, and ribbons into the garlands for a personalised touch.
  • You can also weave string lights through the garlands to add a magical twinkle.

Cork Bottle Lights

  • Embrace sustainability and repurpose your beautiful wine, gin, or other bottles into captivating centerpieces with cork bottle lights.
  • Begin by thoroughly cleaning and drying the empty bottles, ensuring they’re free from any residue.
  • Insert cork bottle lights into the neck of each bottle. These lights often come with a switch or remote control for easy operation.
