Rustic Christmas Centerpiece

I’ve really changed up my Christmas decorating this year.
My rustic Christmas centerpiece is one example.
Instead of just throwing everything I had wherever, I’ve tried to make groupings and look at how I use my space.
And…gasp…..I’ve even used less this year!
My mom was given this little tree after my dad passed away and she was in the assisted living facility.
I combined a few of my parents’ vintage ornaments with some of last year’s after Christmas bargains.
I love having these sweet reminders of their love for the Christmas season.
In the daylight with no lights, a la natural.
I love the glitter stars that came with the clearance ornaments.
My hubby’s all purpose fence slat box has seen a lot of use, including Mother’s Day, Fourth of July, with blue bottles and for every day
My philosophy this year?
Repurpose. Regroup. Re-love.
Hmmm. That’s not a word is it?
But I re-love my centerpiece!
Don’t tell anyone the extension cord is hanging out the back. K?
I am still diligently working on posting my Christmas decor but here’s a peek at how I decorate without a fireplace and a mantel.

What a beautiful box centerpiece, Marty, and I love the little tree. Glad that it brings nice memories of your parents–that’s very special.
I’m so glad you stopped by Marty’s Musings, Athena. I love our Christmas centerpiece as well and it was so easy! I’m going to be looking for more vintage ornaments this summer at yard sales!

This makes a pretty centerpiece! Love the use of the long wooden box filled with ornaments both vintage and new. It’s special to decorated with things that once belonged to our parents. Happy Holidays……..Sarah

This is so pretty. I need to borrow the box idea. I love the cottagey feel! Your tree is really pretty and love the special meaning of it coming from your mom…Christine
Thank you, Christine, for visiting Marty’s Musings and my rustic Christmas centerpiece. I’m glad you like it! I’ve enjoyed it immensely this year and my husband’s DIY box has been so fun to decorate for different season.
