Pretty Pastoral

Even if you’re not spending Christmas in the country, your decorations can help you feel as if you are. Fill six 3-inch terra-cotta pots halfway with dirt. Insert a taper, then fill around it with fresh or faux greens and berries. Place pots in an antique-style wire caddy (find at amazon.com or craft stores), then set it in the center of your buffet or table. Add more greenery around the basket’s base.
