The 3rd Day of Christmas: Christmas Centerpiece

I hope everyone had a great weekend!  We went to the zoo to see Santa and the animals.  The line for Santa was way too long so we just saw the animals.  It was so freezing cold!  But the kiddos had fun so it was worth it.  On Sunday we watched the Christmas devotional from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and it was amazing.  You can watch it on the website if you want something that has to do with the true meaning of Christmas.

Last week I went to the dollar store and bought a bunch of things just so I could see what I could make from them.  The first is this table centerpiece.  I got the silver and gold bells at the dollar store and had the vase, starlight mints, and red ornaments.  I threw it all together and voila.  I kind of like it.




Check back tomorrow for a tutorial on how to make the Christmas village in the background.

  2. Very pretty centerpiece. I love all the decorations of the Christmas season, for they really are a stark contrast to the white of snow all around us!
