A Christmas centerpiece can really make it seem like you put a lot of effort into your Christmas table decor…even if it’s simple! If you aren’t hosting Christmas this year, it’s still so pretty to look at all season long! I love having a special centerpiece on the dining room table or most used table to keep the spirit of Christmas up. If you are like us, our dining room table is never fully set with a table cloth, place mats, place settings, and such, so having a centerpiece helps it feel done up even when food is flying all over from our 18 month old.
I have kept our centerpiece the same for the past couple years and when it’s time to put the decorations away, I keep it together and just put it in the storage box as is. This year, I decided to change it up and it’s such an easy DIY that I wanted to share!
I personally spent $0 on making this DIY centerpiece so not only was it easy, it was FREE! We have had all of these items but similar items can be easily and inexpensively sourced.
Materials
- Rectangle tray or long wood bowl with a flatter bottom
- Faux trees of different sizes
- Faux evergreen sprigs and branches
All you have to do is start with adding the faux trees in the tray and then style the sprigs and branches around the trees so the tray looks full and to your desired look. Using a few different types of branches and sprigs helps it achieve the multi-dimensional look so it’s not just all one color and texture.
It’s literally THAT SIMPLE.
You could even go crazy and add some battery powered lights to it!
I’d love to see your centerpiece design inspired by my DIY! Tag me on Instagram @lifewithlaurenb to show me!
