Hey friends! I thought I’d share some more Christmas decor with you this week. Today I’m showing off my silver and blue centerpiece. It’s very similar to last year’s green and blue centerpiece because, well, I didn’t really have the time to switch it up this year. On the plus side, the centerpiece took me less than 15 minutes to put together and cost only a few bucks since I already had most of the stuff.
I used the silver Home Goods serving tray as the base. The sassy silver deer ornaments were purchased on sale at Kohls last year. I scored the pretty vintage blue ornaments and silver tinsel at Goodwill Outlet a few months ago. The little silver ornaments are from Hobby Lobby. And I think the clear containers are from Home Goods.
I must say that I love taking a clear container, throwing in some tinsel, and topping it off with ornaments. It’s easy. It’s inexpensive. It’s pretty.
I love my spray painted manzanita branch. I wish I would have kept some of the branches I sold (after buying them off Craigslist with intentions of using them for our wedding), but it is what it is I guess. You can’t go wrong with a manzanita branch in your decor arsenal. Write that down.
The silver snowflakes are from Target circa a few years ago. They’ve been chillin’ in a Christmas storage container, waiting patiently to make their debut. I love how they look on the manzanita branch.
And here’s a lovely bokeh photo for your viewing pleasure.
Stop by tomorrow and check out my foyer Christmas decorations.
What are your thoughts on the silver and blue centerpiece?
Do you have a manzanita branch in your decor arsenal?
Aren’t vintage ornaments the best?

Stalk away!
This blue, as well as the whole centerpiece, is stunning! You take such amazing pictures of everything, too. I just received my new DSLR, and I need to practice my skills! Do you have any tips (maybe an earlier blog post) for first-time DSLR users??

Thanks Erin! Here’s two posts I did over a year ago. https://www.twotwentyone.net/2011/10/photography-you-asked-im-answering-part/ AND https://www.twotwentyone.net/2011/10/photography-you-asked-im-answering-part_31/. I’ve since upgraded my camera. Post to come after Christmas. 🙂
Thank you so much!
Speaking of clear containers, the Yankee Candle jars (the sleeker ones, not the ‘bubble’ jars) make excellent clear containers! The labels peel off completely and once they are washed, they are beautiful clear containers!
The silver and blue looks gorgeous and as always, you’ve done a great job! Thanks for all the inspiration!
love this! so classy and pretty. i think the branch with the snowflakes could also stay out through the rest of the winter!!

Very pretty. I really love the shimmer.
So cute! I love these decorations! And the colors look great in front of your pretty and bright tree! 🙂
This looks fantastic! I love how you combined vintage with modern. The little reindeer are my favorite!
These decorations are absolutely beautiful!
So pretty! I love the tinsel + ornament combo 🙂
This centerpiece is beautiful!!
sooo pretty! i love the branches with the snowflake ornaments. And that fact that you described the deer as “sassy”.
It’s lovely! Silver and blue is one of my favorite color combos for Christmas! Thanks for sharing!
Everything looks so gorgeous, Chelsea!! You have such a great eye for staging and creating vignettes!
Festive! I have some glitter snowflake ornaments just like that that have just been hung on the tree the past couple of years–so boring now that I see this. Might have to steal your idea…
I’m all about easy! The branch with snowflakes is perfection.
