Holy Hurricanes!

If I could recommend one decorative piece...I would recommend a glass hurricane! This is the most versatile piece you will ever own! I am constantly amazed, how you can drastically change the look of them, just by changing their fillers!


Here are a few very low cost fillers to use with your hurricanes this holiday season:


*Popcorn kernels, green peas, black beans - you can also layer these - buy in bulk at discount stores



*Coffee beans - smells great with a vanilla candle



*rocks/pebbles




*fall leaves, dingle balls, pine cones, pine branches - make sure if you use with a candle, that they are far away from flame!

*Fresh cranberries

*Fresh apples, citrus, pomegrante, etc. - leave whole, or float in water



*Artificial snow flakes



*Cinnimon sticks


*Colored water



*Ornaments

*Pumpkins/gourds

*Candy

*Fresh bubs - amarylis, paper whites



*Tiny wrapped packages



*Beverages - punch, eggnog, etc.



*Potpouri



*Sand/Shells



*Miniture Christmas tree



*Picture
