Festival
   of Lights

Silver dreidels and golden candles give a contemporary spin to the traditional Hanukkah centerpiece. For a simple yet creative tablescape, line white bread plates or coffee saucers with a ring of lemon leaves (or any other greenery) from a florist or your back yard. Set a shimmery gold pillar candle in the center of each plate to make your own festival of lights. Surround with silver dreidels and a white bowl heaped with gold gelt to make a casual central grouping, then carry the theme across the table with stacks of gold gelt scattered like confetti. White tableware, cobalt blue goblets and clear stemware bordered in gold match the place setting to the tablescape, tying the whole ensemble together.
