Sparkling Vintage Christmas Holiday Ideas Using Glass And Silver Compote Bowls

How To Add Some Retro And Vintage Bling To Your Christmas Holiday Table With A Vintage Pedestal Compote Bowl

I have been out and about snapping photos of elegant holiday table decorations. You may actually have plenty of family heirlooms already at home that you can bring out for the holidays and use filled with attractive vintage or newer colorful ornament balls.

As you can see in these photos taken at The Tomato Factory in Hopewell, Pennsylvania, there are so many different kinds if bowls and vases that will work quite nicely for holiday decor.
