A festive decoration for any table is a Christmas centerpiece crafted of Christmas ornaments. You can make a Christmas ornament centerpiece by following these steps.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Assorted round ornaments
  • Decorative plate for a base
  • Glue gun
  • Glue sticks
  • Spray glitter
  1. Step 1

    Start by placing the largest ornaments on the plate to make a base. Work your way from the largest ornament up to the smallest sizes. Glue these ornaments onto the plate with the glue gun.

  2. Step 2

    Add another layer of ornaments on top of the first layer by gluing them in place with the glue gun. Make each layer a little smaller around than the last, eventually forming the shape of a Christmas tree.

  3. Step 3

    Use one color or as many different colored ornaments as you like. You can make several small centerpieces or one big centerpiece.

  4. Step 4

    Glue the smallest-size ornament on the very top of the stack of ornaments. You can add a star or similar object, if you prefer.

  5. Step 5

    Spray the entire centerpiece with glitter to make it sparkle, or leave it like it is for a more subtle look.

Tips & Warnings
  • Ornaments come in glass or plastic. Plastic will last longer because you can pack it away after the holidays and not worry about it breaking in storage.
