Throwing a holiday party and still stuck on the table centerpiece?  Try this easy and inexpensive DIY Cookie Tree as a table accent.

What you'll need:

3 or 4 long twigs (approximately 2 feet tall)
6 full leaves
red spray paint
mini ornaments
A clear bowl.  Pictured here is a Pampered Chef Trifle Bowl.
12-15 Cookies with holes in the center
Ribbon

What to do:

Step 1: Take your twigs and coat them entirely with red spray paint.  Allow to dry.

Step 2: Fill your clear bowl with your mini ornaments until it is packed full.

Step 3: Stand the red twigs in the middle of the ornaments.


Step 4: Place the leaves at the bottom of the twigs, as shown above.

Step 5: Tie a ribbon through the hole of each cookie and hang from twig branches.


Et voilà!
