Light up the table or sideboard with this simple battery arrangement
Power LED lights and Jewish salt made by Joanne Plummer at Manotick Mill Street Florist.
There are lights in her shop.
Unlock the lights first and straighten the wires (the lights sold by Plummer in the photo are already inside the Christmas ball ).
In the olive tray or other long plates, place the battery pack in the middle and arrange the lamp ends-to-end.
Keep the lights in place and cover the wires with Jewish salt.
Rearrange the lights as needed, add green plants or whatever else you choose.
As a variant, use a crystal or glass salad bowl and pour a layer of cranberry before proceeding as described.
If your light is not connected to the Christmas Ball, remove the hat from the normal Christmas decorations and put it upside down on the bulb.
