I love white, that’s all there is to it. It’s such an easy color to decorate around. Everything goes with it. The accent colors that you use with white are what give white its tones. Gold used with white gives it a warm feel, while silver used with white gives it an icy feel. This little vignette was inspired by a white & silver Santa which led to a snowy scene. I made the vignette to use for my White Christmas Tablescape. It was put together easily. This is how I did it.
I started with a simple plain white tray.
I cover the inside of the tray with quilt batting. Then I placed the White & Silver Santa towards the center of the base.
Then I gathered some silver beads & rhinestones to decorate some white bottle brush trees. I was lucky enough to still have some star shaped rhinestones that I could use on top of the bottle trees.
I hot glued them onto the bottle brush trees to make them feel a little festive. When they were decorated, I cut cross shaped slits in the batting to tuck the bottom of the trees into. So the trees actually sit on the tray.
I had a silver deer ornament that I wanted to use with this vignette. But he wouldn’t stand by its self. And it had red gemstones on the antlers. Since I wanted this vignette to have an icy feel, I removed the red gems & glued some of the rhinestones in their place. I also added rhinestones to both sides of the space that should have been used to hang the ornament. Once that was finished, I glued the ornament to a large wooden flat stick that I had painted white. (like a tongue depressor) I slit the batting so that the wooden stick could be tucked under the batting.
Then to balance the other side, I made a snowman by painting some wooden balls white, added some glitter paint, painted on some eyes, nose, mouth & buttons. I added a black hat & several strands of some silver cording for a scarf. I had some white berries from the White Christmas Centerpiece that was left over, & I thought that they looked like little snowballs, so I added them to the front of the snowman.
And the White Christmas Vignette was finished!
And this is how it looked when I used it for the White Christmas Tablescape:
Happy Creating everyone!
