Festive Pineapple

As promised, here is a photo of my decorated pineapple, pictured as the centrepiece of a festive table decoration:

I’ve decorated the pineapple in traditional manner with baubles and lights – I’ve not used tinsel as this is perhaps a tad OTT. The pineapple is set within a discreet and tasteful tableau of 2 Father Christmases (is there a collective noun?),  2 festive clockwork gnomes, 2 festive clockwork snails and a festive glass reindeer candle holder. I think you will agree that this decoration will give a certain air of sophistication to any Christmas table without being too garish. If one’s guests prefer a livelier table decoration then both Father Christmases can, at a flick of their switches, dance and sing, one of them is even sound activated! Of course, the gnomes and snails could, once wound, roam about the table to the delight of all. But – it is the pineapple that really steals the festive show!
