If you're the type to have candles displayed in glass hurricane vases (a lovely look on its own) add a little holiday flair by filling the bottom of the vase with cranberries, nuts, or small pinecones. Fill the vase about one third of the way up (use your judgment as to what looks best) and then place the candle inside. Group a few of these together for maximum impact. They make great table centerpieces and mantel decorations. (Just be sure to never leave candles unattended.)
