Today I'm sharing photos of my [very white] Christmas table decor! I'm excited about it because it's proof that gorgeous holiday decoration doesn't have to be expensive.
I already had the greenery and white table cloth, but everything else came from either Goodwill or The Dollar Store! See those really large glass candle holders... large flower vases from Goodwill. And the small faux mercury glass candles holders... little glass bowls from Goodwill [just spritz water inside them and then immediately spray a light coat of Krylon's looking glass spray paint inside them. Let it dry and repeat the process about 3 times for desired transparency].
Those adorable mirrored christmas trees... Dollar store [What?!]. Ok, so I lied because I just noticed the crystal candle holders... they were a wedding gift so I had them already too! But I did make the little "snow balls" that are on the candle holders, and I'll tell you how to make them soon [so, so easy!]. And finally, those little shimmery pears were a Dollar Store find too [but I've had them for years so I doubt you'll find them now, sorry!]. And that's it! Now get creative and create a thrifty winter wonderland in your home too :)

This is a very pretty table. Last year I did some faux mercury glass, but I am not familiar with "looking glass" paint -- something new this year?? Your thrifty finds certainly made a beautiful composition.
ReplyDeleteDollar store is my favorite place for holiday decor!! And BTW... They still hbe the glittery fruit at mine! I also bought some like 5 years ago!! But I pick some up every year! Live the white and the ordiments on the table!!
