Living Room Christmas Craft - Coffee Table Box



This is an extremely easy way to make a nice centrepiece. Collect a few things you have around the house, add a few Christmas items, and Voila! A box that looks very put-together!

In our Box:

A gold glitter Reindeer    (Bought at a Christmas Market)
White candles of varying heights    (Bought at IKEA)
3 Ashland "Christmas Tree" Candles    (These are incredible! When lit, they make the entire house smell like pine. Just be careful when lighting candles around greenery - high fire hazard! Make sure flames are protected.)
Small gold ornaments
Pinecones    (Gathered from our backyard, and at the cabin)
Pine Garland    (You could substitute real branches from your Christmas tree, but ours are from Michaels' craft store)

It also holds our Coasters tucked away in the corner (gray slate squares)

The box itself is a breakfast tray that I flipped upside down, then removed the legs! It was an off-green colour, so I spray painted it with Rust-Oleum Almond paint to give it a more Vintage White feel.
