For quite some time now, professional decorators have been using natural items like fruit in vases to create focal points. There is no better time to follow this tip than the holidays, because whole red apples, green apples, and limes work really well in the Christmas colour scheme, and compliment displays of simple ornaments to create a monochromatic scheme that is sensational.

In addition, strong branches are well suited for hanging additional intricate ornaments on an entryway table, or side table. Just weigh down the branch with shimmering stones inside a flowerpot painted in any metallic shade. Then drape the special ornaments from the mini branches that jut forth.
