Great Ball of Fire

Flames of Green

Take a pretty glass container, glue bits

of greenery around it, and set candles

inside to combine the freshness of

greenery with the welcoming warmth

of candlelight.

Add a contemporary touch to your holiday decor this

season,

opposite.

This melon-size orb of glowing red

carnations is easy to make: Simply place a ball of florist's

foam atop a pretty glass cake plate and insert affordable

flowers into the ball. For a luxurious upgrade, use roses.
