It's the season for The Nutcracker so why not decorate with nuts? It's simple, elegant, and can be very cost effective. All you have to do is fill a few clear glass bowls and vases with them. Leave as is or add candles or even flowers. It's a little bit different, but lots of fun. To really up the ante and make them look elegant, try spray-painting nuts in metallic colors like gold and silver – whatever works with your holiday décor.
