How to Make a Christmas Centerpiece

Making this Christmas Centerpiece takes just a few materials and no tools. You'll need:

• A faux evergreen wreath
• Flocking or snow spray paint
• 7 to 12 ornaments, depending on the size of the wreath
• Holiday ribbon
• Roll of polyester batting
• Circular wood board
• Flameless LED candles and votives in different sizes
• Safety mask

• Lay the wreath flat and spray the flocking spray straight down onto the wreath. This will create a realistic look of snow with the heaviest coating on the top portions of the wreath.
• You can layer the flocking spray to create a look of thicker snow.
• Once you finish with the spray, set the wreath aside to dry for at least four to six hours so the spray can harden.

After your flocking spray has dried, the next step is to assemble the centerpiece.

• Group a few of your LED votives in the center of your flat circular tray or cardboard.
• Add in the rest of your LED votives, mixing short and tall votives together.
• It's best to use an odd number of three or five candles for the most eye-catching look.

Using LEDs with a soft yellow light provides a nice warm look, but any LED candles will do the trick.

Safety Tip: Use only LED candles. Traditional candles can pose a fire hazard.

• Place your wreath over the candles so the edge of your tray is completely hidden.
• Artfully, tie small ornaments throughout the wreath. Choose bright colors or metallics based on your holiday color scheme.
• Use bits of ribbon and other gilded berries to add color to the centerpiece.

• Add some more instant snow and wrap white batting around the centerpiece.
• Try to fill up any empty spots and cover the wood board as much as possible. This will give your new centerpiece a wintery wonderland look.

Finish your DIY Christmas Centerpiece with a festive bow. Turn on the flameless candles and make your new DIY wreath the center of attention.
