Adding Light to a Christmas Tablescape in the Dining Room

Video Transcript

"My name is Judy Williams representing expertvillage.com, and today we are talking about different ways to decorate your dining room. This arrangement could be used just as it is, but I wanted to add more depth and texture and color and I wanted to be lighted. So I have taken some candles from around the house and added some red candles. You will notice on this one I have this glow. Now this, when the candles burn, it may put wax on my table, so I'll tell you what I did. I just took a regular inexpensive candle holder. This will add height and protection for my tablecloth. Again I wanted a little height, so I'm layering that. So this candle you will notice that it has a little glitter. I just sprayed gold glitter on that. On this side I'm adding another candelabra, and you notice that I'm adding a very tall candle so it balances with the trees that are here. Again you will see this circular shape, it is almost like a backwards 'S.' And to the front of this I will add another candle. I like for things to be melted down a little bit whether if I have used them or not to appear that they have been used. "
