You may not be gathering at a waterfront cottage this Christmas, but you can still bring a bit of the beach to your holiday festivities. It can be as easy as letting the sand and sea influence your color scheme and decorations. Glittery silver and blue decorations are a nice change-up from traditional red and green and last through the New Year as well. A table set with shimmery linens, sea glass candle holders, and sand-colored accents create an ethereal winter wonderland.
