Dozens of little white votives (super cheap!) as well as pricier fat pillar candles will turn your mantel, dining table, or sideboard into a glowing Christmas display. Set them on a tray, a mirror, or on glass pedestals to light up a party or special dinner. Decorate in between with sprigs of greenery or a carpet of artificial snow.
