Green Gatherings: Decorations

Expecting guests? This week we'll offer tips for green celebrations.

Tip #2: Go Natural

Let nature inspire your holiday centerpiece this year: Collect leaves or pinecones from your backyard to create a fall display. Centerpieces of fruits and vegetables can be eaten later. If flowers are a must, opt for fair-trade, organic bouquets. Better yet, decorate with small potted plants and give them to your guests as gifts.
