We want the homemade Christmas centerpieces to take center stage this year in our Christmas decoration. Although we have been preparing the Christmas decorations for many days, now the preparations for the Christmas Eve dinner tables and the farewell of the year on New Year’s Eve are taking place.
That is why we have created a compilation of the best Christmas centerpieces that you can make yourself at home. We love crafts and everything that is DIY, and this time we dare to propose all kinds of Christmas centers. From the classic pinecone centerpieces, Christmas colors like red and green, to food, rustic or metallic centerpieces! And, of course, if you own any other original idea to make a Christmas centerpiece, don’t hesitate to share it with us.
1. Christmas centerpiece with pinecones

Pinecones are usually one of the most repetitive decorations on Christmas trees, and in Christmas centerpieces as well. Therefore, we bring you this option, very easy and quick to do, to decorate your Christmas Eve table with pinecones. You would only need mason jars, coarse salt to simulate snow inside the jars, pinecones, rope, and candles. The candles can be battery-operated so you don’t have to worry if they stay lit during dinner. In fact, to make it even more personal, you can paint the pinecones in matching colors with your tablecloth, or the Christmas decoration in your house.
2. Homemade centerpieces with poinsettias
The official Christmas flowers are poinsettias. Is there a better idea than decorating a table with seasonal flowers? The freshness and naturalness of the flowers please wherever you put them. In this case, they are white poinsettias, but you can always turn to the red hot Christmas and you will get a classic and endearing decoration.
3. Original centerpieces with food
This is one of the most original Christmas centerpieces. In addition to making your table more harmonious, you will not have to worry about picking it up later because there will be nothing left of it. From the homemade centerpieces made with food we bring you this wonderful cheese crown for all tastes. You can also make it with fruits or sweets for the little ones in the house. Instead of a flower crown, a food crown. Surely more than one thinks it is one of the best options.
4. Christmas centerpieces with metallic ornaments
DIY centerpieces with cups and metallic embellishments
Handfie’s Christmas Proposal! We have not required to miss the possibility to approach a very easy and fun way to make a Christmas centerpiece with metallic tones. And one of the materials is lentils! With glasses, candles and metallic spray paint you have it. You can also make this same style of Christmas decorations with the colors that you prefer. It is an original and easy to make centerpiece.
5. Rustic centers
Rustic Christmas centerpieces made with logs
After the classic pinecones and poinsettias, the most popular Christmas centerpieces are those with a more rustic style. Therefore, we bring you several proposals for rustic centerpieces for this Christmas. If you have a country house and you still use firewood, you can use those wooden logs that you are not going to use, and create a centerpiece with tree trunks and candles like this one.
6. Centers with decorated cups
Even though you have a lot of guests for Christmas dinner, you have a few glasses left over, and we know what to do with them. After making the metallic ornaments, you can decorate those that you have left with pine needles like these. You just have to glue the leaves to the glass and place a candle or any other Christmas accessory that you like.
7. Snow decorated centerpiece
Since it is winter here, although in other parts of the world it is not, we are going to acclimate our Christmas centerpiece to the climate. We will use a little salt to simulate snowflakes and that there are not only windows to the outside. In this way, with some glass jars, salt, and candles or holly, you have the ideal centerpiece.
8. Centerpieces made with wooden pallets
We have already shown you a centerpiece made with a log, but now you also have the option of making it with wooden pallets. We love to recycle! It may take more work, but with pallets, pinecones, dried leaves and candles you have a 100% Christmas centerpiece.
9. Christmas centerpieces made with balls
Original homemade centerpieces with poinsettias
Without Grandma seeing you, temporarily borrow two balls of white yarn because you will need them to make your next homemade centerpiece. We return to rescue the poinsettias, this time in their maximum Christmas splendor, because they are red poinsettias. Use a strip of fabric, or a ribbon, to make a bow at what will be the waist of the ball and place the flowers on top of the ball. You can really decorate it with all the Christmas accessories you want or even put glitter on it. Can you think that other Christmas crafts can be made with skeins?
10. Homemade centerpieces with glasses
We also have other examples of Christmas decorations with glasses, candles and snow. This brings together many of the steps that we have already seen. In this case, to be able to shape what goes inside the cup you will need to seal it with a piece of cloth, a heat glue gun or some similar closure.
11. Christmas centers with candles
Christmas centerpieces with wood and candles
Another option for making Christmas centerpieces with wood like the ones we have shown you before is turning the logs into candle holders.
12. Centerpieces for Christmas with floating flowers
Christmas centerpieces with flowers and floating candles
Floating candles and flowers? Yes! This is how all your guests will look when they see this centerpiece. It is very easy, beautiful, colorful and Christmas. Can you ask for more? The flowers inside the glasses or vases can be the ones you prefer. And you just have to add water and floating candles.
We are very excited about Christmas and we wanted to convey to you our great desire to decorate the whole house with Christmas decorations. We’re still not sure what centerpiece we’ll make for our dinner. Do you make us a proposal? What is the one that you liked the most?
