Christmas Dining Table Arrangement

I used the tray that I got last Friday (scroll down if you are new) for an arrangement for my dining room table.  I started by digging candles out of my supply closet.  Amanda of Imperfectly Beautiful inspired me to cover my candles with some pretty tissue paper.  I then tied on burlap strips and ribbon.  I surrounded the candles with different species of pine cones, magnolia pods sprayed gold, and dried rose hips.  My table now looks festive!

A little crafting was just what I needed after a long day at school.  Now what should I do for the kitchen table centerpiece?  Mmmm….
