  • If you want it to look like Santa made a quick stop at your dining room table, cover bars of soap with holiday wrapping paper and embellish them with tiny ribbons and gift tags. Pile a few of these miniature presents at the center of your table.
 
  • For a rustic look, tie pine needles and evergreen boughs together with a red ribbon. If you want a fresh blanket of snow on top, dust some icing sugar over the arrangement.
 
  • Everyone has extra ornaments! Place them in a large glass bowl or on a platter for an elegant and timeless look that everyone will admire.
 
  • For a floral piece, use a combination of poinsettias, red chrysanthemums, and white tulips. Start off by placing a piece of wet florist’s foam inside a vase. Gently poke your flowers into the foam. Finish the piece by filling the vase with evergreen sprigs, cranberries, or tiny ornaments. You can even create snowballs out of bunches of white roses with short stems.
