Christmas Candyland Tablescape

Enjoy the sweetness of the season.

1. Cover your table with the tablecloth. Place the runner down the center of the table. Or fold the fabric to form a runner, and iron the fabric to make neat creases on the edges.

2. Fill the apothecary jars with candies. Tie the candy scoops to the jars with colored ribbons, wrapping the ribbons around the tops of the jars.

3. Arrange the jars of candy and the collection of miniature trees, elves, and Santa's down the center of the table runner.

4. Cut name tags from the sheet of paper; use the marker to write guests’ names on the tags. Cut small pieces of silver string and tie the name tags to the decorative stars or candy canes.

5. Set out the place settings with the dinner plates, the napkins, the salad plates, and the flatware. Place one name tag on each salad plate.
