1. An Enlightening Centerpiece

Fill a decorative glass bowl with decorative light bulbs dipped in sparkly glitter of green and red or silver and gold. Make this a centerpiece for your table or place it on an end table for more Christmas fun. Alternatively, you can replace the bulbs with pinecones with the tips painted in silver and gold or even use Christmas ornaments in the same colours.

6. Double Action Presents

Use the presents you have wrapped as a décor. Don’t just place all of them under the tree. Place them on tables or deep window sills with red and green ornaments around them. You can be creative with the wrapping too. Use red and green beads as tie-ons for your presents, instead of bows.
