Cozy. \u00a0It really is one of the nicest words! \u00a0During the holiday season, we enjoy all of the fun events that go along with the season. \u00a0However, at the end of the day, I love coming home to cozy views with our Christmas decorations. \u00a0Some of my favorite vignettes are Christmas candle centerpiece ideas that I’ll share with you today. \u00a0Bonus: they are all quick, simple, and can be easily tweaked with the decor you already have on hand!<\/strong><\/p>\n I used to not decorate for winter but now, I enjoy leaving some of my Christmas candle centerpiece ideas out through the winter too. \u00a0After all, I live in South Florida, where our winter is basically spring or fall for everyone else. \u00a0Ha! \u00a0We definitely aren\u2019t getting snow and most days are gorgeous sunshine and 70 degree weather. \u00a0(Don\u2019t get mad at me, now! \u00a0You\u2019re welcome to come and visit!)<\/p>\n Over the past couple of years, I have enjoyed doing more cozy winter d\u00e9cor along with my Christmas decorations. \u00a0It is really nice to take down the Christmas decor after the holiday and still have cozy styles to enjoy around our home.<\/p>\n I decided to embrace the 5:30-6:00 sunset, long evenings, \u201ccool\u201d temps, and make our home extra cozy for these winter months<\/strong>. At the same time, it\u2019s just fun to do a different kind of d\u00e9cor for a couple of months anyway! \u00a0An simple Christmas centerpiece can easily transition to table decorations for the winter season too.<\/p>\n I have had fun creating some winter and Christmas candle centerpiece ideas and am excited to share them with you. \u00a0Even the dining room can feel cozy<\/strong> and I love walking through our home and catching these cozy views and festive look on our holiday table.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Winter-Centerpieces-20210126-13-scaled.jpg” alt=”tablescape with white bowls and golden candlesticks” title_text=”Winter Centerpieces – 20210126 (13)” admin_label=”IMG Table Image” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”BLOG TITLE” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Christmas Candle Centerpiece Ideas with a Bowl” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Step 1.0″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n To create this centerpiece, I used a large, antique, French grain bin.\u00a0 You could also use a dough bowl<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, crate<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, or basket to create this effect.\u00a0 Even a pretty tray<\/a><\/strong><\/span> would work great!\u00a0 While real candles would be lovely, I do enjoy having these battery-operated candles<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0flicker on each evening and stay lit until bedtime.\u00a0 It adds some ambiance and certainly some cozy vibes to our home.<\/p>\n I used candles with different heights and layered them with deconstructed books<\/strong> to give even more height variation.\u00a0 A few sprigs of faux, winter greenery\u00a0finished off the look!<\/p>\n P.S.

\u00a0I love how the white ironstone looks. \u00a0Mixing and matching the sizes and styles added more texture and character to my table as well.<\/strong><\/p>\n Next, I poured a few inches of vase filler rock in my pots and added the candles. \u00a0An odd number of taper candles works perfectly. \u00a0I added five candles to my larger pots and three candles to the small bowls.<\/p>\n And as it turns out, I ended up with 13 candles in this DIY Christmas candle centerpiece! \u00a0It was a happy coincidence, as our daughter turned 13 that week and I used this centerpiece for winter too.<\/p>\n I layered my pots into this old thrifted wagon top, turned into a wooden tray. \u00a0Then, I added simple shop rags (which we use for napkins), a jar with flatware, and dessert plates for cake!<\/p>\n Just as layering works so beautifully on a mantel or coffee table vignette, it also adds texture and interest to festive centerpieces!<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Winter-Centerpieces-20210126-15-scaled.jpg” alt=”closeup of battery-operated candlesticks in an ironstone bowl” title_text=”Winter Centerpieces – 20210126 (15)” admin_label=”IMG Table Image” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Winter-Centerpieces-20210126-17-scaled.jpg” alt=”different vessels holding gold candlesticks down the middle of a wooden table” title_text=”Winter Centerpieces – 20210126 (17)” admin_label=”IMG Table Image” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Winter-Centerpieces-20210126-16-scaled.jpg” alt=”view of a Christmas tablescape in front of wooden cubbies decorated with greenery and mortar and pestles” title_text=”Winter Centerpieces – 20210126 (16)” admin_label=”IMG Table Image” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text admin_label=”Winter Candle Centerpiece Ideas with Metallics” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n To create this centerpiece, you need:<\/strong><\/p>\n I love this centerpiece because you can truly get the same effect in so many different ways. \u00a0Candle arrangements like this are budget friendly<\/strong>, too, because you can just pull a variety of pieces you have around your home. \u00a0At the same time, these are great items to thrift for. \u00a0All of my brass and silver are thrifted, which makes for a really inexpensive Christmas table centerpiece!<\/p>\n To create a curated, vignette look for this easy Christmas centerpiece, I started with a vintage breadboard. \u00a0This large, German one has such great patina and was a great \u201cjunking\u201d find! \u00a0Breadboards come in a wide range of styles and prices and they make a great base for styling. \u00a0Over on THIS blog post,<\/span><\/a><\/strong> I share ideas for decorating a coffee table and why a base can be so helpful for decorating.<\/p>\n Next, I added these vintage, silver chalices<\/a><\/strong>.<\/span> \u00a0I bought this entire collection at a vintage market several years ago and love to use them for DIY centerpieces. \u00a0The best part is I feel like they particularly fit the winter months, \u00a0with the mercury glass pillar candles kind of look! \u00a0To vary the heights, I layered different heights and sizes. \u00a0Then, I even stacked some of the chalices for more height variation.<\/p>\n In the wide chalices, I added simple, white pillar candles. \u00a0I varied the heights of the candles. \u00a0You could also use votive candles or flameless candles<\/a><\/strong><\/span> here like I usually do! \u00a0I only added them to part of the chalices. \u00a0Remember, the goal here is simple and cozy!<\/strong><\/p>\n I added a pitcher of fresh flowers, but you could substitute a house plant, faux greenery stems, or fresh cut stems from your yard! \u00a0Then, just add them to cheap mason jars in the center of your table for a quick floral centerpiece!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Winter-Centerpieces-20210126-3-scaled.jpg” alt=”view of dining room with a beautiful white apothecary and faux greenery garlands hung across a large mirror” title_text=”Winter Centerpieces – 20210126 (3)” admin_label=”IMG Table Image” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Winter-Centerpieces-20210126-1-scaled.jpg” alt=”beautiful flower arrangement in an ironstone pitcher and different sizes of candles on smaller gold candlesticks” title_text=”Winter Centerpieces – 20210126 (1)” admin_label=”IMG Table Image” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Christmas Candle Centerpiece Ideas with Glass Cloches” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n To create this centerpiece you need:<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Christmas-cloche-candle-centerpiece-2-scaled.jpg” alt=”beautiful flower arrangement in an ironstone pitcher and different sizes of candles on smaller gold candlesticks” title_text=”Christmas cloche candle centerpiece 2″ admin_label=”IMG New Pic 1″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”Christmas Candle Centerpiece Ideas with Glass Cloches CONTINUED” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n I literally threw this easy Christmas centerpiece together at the last minute for some decoration on the dinner table. \u00a0However, I love how it turned out and left it for the Christmas season!<\/p>\n First, I added three glass cloches<\/a><\/strong><\/span> with wooden risers<\/a><\/strong><\/span>. \u00a0Mine do not match but this style would also be beautiful with matching cloche and base sets, like THIS.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n For variety, I added brass candlesticks under the middle glass cloche. \u00a0Then, under the other two cloches, I added two golden pillar candles.<\/span> \u00a0<\/a><\/strong>I absolutely love THESE<\/a><\/strong><\/span> because the glass has a pretty shimmer.<\/p>\n Next, I would two different winter greenery garlands<\/a><\/strong><\/span> around the wooden risers and topped it with a bell garland<\/span>.<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0 I have had this one for many years but THIS one<\/a><\/strong><\/span> would be beautiful too. \u00a0I also love the idea of a pretty ornament garland, like THIS<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, for a Christmas candle ring centerpiece.<\/p>\n That’s it!
