Fresh and Fanciful
A fresh and festive centerpiece is as close as your grocery store, where you can usually pick up a bouquet of pretty red and white carnations on a small poinsettia plant.
Tuck some holly or greens around your bright blooms and set the bowl in a box wrapped to look like a gift. Red, green, or white candles add a warm glow and a merry finishing touch.
