Few people own a tray made of real silver and it is usually part of a whole set that is passed down through generations. Hardly anything else is needed to really show off this gem. Rely on elegant simplicity and sparingly emphasize the wintry,Christmas touch. Faux snow and small themed figures would add playful flair without distracting from beautiful silver shimmer
Silver and white is a timeless combination that is always current and fits every living style equally well. Original collectibles and craft items will provide variety in the quiet atmosphere. The idea of making your own snow globes from leftover wine glasses is particularly imaginative. Chic but unused dishes come asDecorationgood for new use.
Arrange the different collectibles boldly, no matter what style they belong to. Just stick to the color concept that you have thought through and decided on in advance. Don't forget the candles. These, with their warm flame, ensure harmonious,cozy atmosphere. Choose any number of white candles of the same size.
Natural materials, which can be found in the garden, park or simply on the way home, can be wonderfully arranged on a silver tray. Cones, anise stars, cinnamon sticks and small pine branches can all be used. Place a Christmas ball of any size next to it and perhaps some found objects that have a silver shimmer.
Now we will explain that silver platter does not always mean one made of the well-known precious metal. Modern, innovative designs replicate the popular look and ensure a similar effect. These materials are often easier to care for than real silver as it has the property of creating a patina and requires regular polishing to remove it.
Fresh green always creates a cheerful atmosphere, which is particularly desirable during the cold season. The decorative boxwood balls look particularly cute when decorated with small Christmas balls. As evergreen plants, they require little care and regular watering is not necessary.
In modern living styles, people are increasingly skimping on elaborate and far too lavish decorations. Be practical and choose decorative elements that fit the concept you have decided on. The elegant silver tray also goes well with pieces of jewelry, such as silver rings and others, which can easily be used in a playful way. Beads become balls that decorate the mini boxwood. Be creative, but don't exaggerate.
A silver-look tray can also be used outdoors. Place beautiful lanterns, fir branches, small apples, cones and others of natural origin on top that go perfectly with a harmonious garden decoration.
If a silver tray is not available, get one made of another pretty material, such as wood, and arrange with items in silver tones. Stay true to the concept with the main color 'silver' and ensure that silver predominates in the rest of the table decoration. A lot of things can be transformed in a matter of seconds using spray paint.
A tray made of natural material, such as wicker, may be the best solution if your home is country-style and you want silver decoration. The metallic nuances suit the simple, modern interior more than the cozy cottage. Nevertheless, there are Christmas baubles and Christmas tree decorations in silver made of real glass with metal pendants that look deliberately rustic and used and fit in wonderfully with the rural ambience.
Ceramic, whose surface is specially treated to give it a shimmering effect, achieves a similar effect to the silver tray and can be wonderfully combined with metallic colors. Select the remaining items so that they are designed exclusively in silver, gold or copper. Place containers made of glass or porcelain with a reflective surface next to them. Don't forget the lights as this will bring out the shimmer.
Vintage is currently really trendy in fashion, but also in design. Old objects with signs of use that provide evidence of past histories serve as highlights that add an individual touch to the room design. Well-preserved pieces can certainly be found at the flea market, but newly produced items have the popular used look.
In addition to silver, brass is another popular material for making trays. Smoothly polished brass is reminiscent of old gold and is therefore very effective. A round brass tray is particularly suitable for festive table decoration at Christmas. There are plenty of other small items made from the same material to suit the Christmas season. These are not cheap, but they are a timeless decoration that is not easily damaged.
The reflective surface effect that a silver tray creates can easily be achieved with a mirror. The visual attraction is much greater, so the surface is perfectly smooth. Place objects made of glass or metal on it that also reflect the light and create an unmistakable eye-catcher on the Christmas table.
