Christmas table decoration

This idea is so simple that even young children can put it together.

Just supply a metal bowl, some white candles, pine cones and blu tak to stick to the bottom of the bowl to keep the candle or candles in place. If you don't have blu tak, you could use playdough.

I think it makes a very stylish Christmas decoration.
