Holiday Table Decor - Ultra Modern Gold and Silver

The winter holidays are here.  I love this time of year.   Now that Thanksgiving is over, let's decorate for Christmas.
The house looks so festive when you add special touches of the season.   So, let's start with the dining room table.  I'm showing three different looks on one table.  This is Option 1, for that ultra modern touch.   Gold and silver ornaments, that's the focal point for this table scape. 
Using different size ornaments add dimension to the centerpiece.  A large glass fish bowl works great or if you have a special family heirloom use that. 
You can purchase ornaments at high end department stores, Target and even The Dollar Store.  Expensive ornaments aren't necessary.   Mix them together.  That's the beauty of this look.   And use lots and lots of balls.
Start with a gorgeous runner.  The silver satin fabric in this runner has lots of shine and the beading border on both ends is stunning.  Marshall's has this piece for $15, a real bargain.
I found the tray at a thrift store.  It's a 24 inch square picture that cost $5.  I removed the glass from the picture and painted the picture and frame a shiny silver color.  Putting the glass back and adding silver crystals around the frame changes a picture to a tray.  Great tip!!!
Add small square glass votives with candles to the table.  Spray the glass with a spray adhesive and roll in silver glitter.  Roll the candles in glitter too.  It  really works !!!
