With the holidays around the corner, it's time to start thinking about how you're going to decorate the table. Better yet, sharing the tips below offers the chance to win a dining set of your own from Jennifer Convertibles!

Whether you're hosting Thanksgiving, Christmas or Hanukkah dinner, there are simple things you can do to create a festive energy. Here are four easy tips from Oprah.com that we think are pretty great: 

Step 1: Punch up the centerpiece

"Save money on flowers & table decorations by combining the bar and the centerpiece. Set up a beautiful punch bowl in the center of the table - it makes a great-looking decoration, and people can serve themselves drinks. Put fruit, edible flowers or large frozen chunks of ice in it, and surround with votives." (Linnea Johannsson, Perfect Parties: Recipes and Tips from a New York Party Planner)

Step 2: Mix and match your china

"Pair your fancier dishes with vintage plates, to have a colorful, fun look that doesn't feel too stuffy." (Cheryl Najafi, You're So Invited: Panic Less, Play More and Get Your Party On) If you're using disposable, feel free to combine patterns or vary colors!

Step 3: Find quirky things to put flowers in

Instead of traditional vases, recycle quirky bottles to put flowers in like - mustard jars, glass beer or tequilla bottles - "Soak the labels off and they become the perfect thing to hold flowers because they're low and your guests can still talk over the arrangements." (Cornelia Guest, Cornelia Guest's Simple Pleasures: Healthy Seasonal Cooking and Easy Entertaining)

Step 4: Don't just decorate the table

Think about the whole dining room: "Greenery, autumn leaves, twigs, pumpkins and squash, accented with strings of tiny white lights, can adorn the top of china cabinets, bookcases or the mantel over the hearth. They create an overall effect that is both seasonal and hosptible!" (Christy Rost, Celebrating Home: A Handbook for Gracious Living)

I would like to win The "Lacey" dining room collection. I like the faux marble and upholstered chairs.

I absolutely love the Lacey it is perfect for my family of four. I love marble and that table is amazing and would hold up nice with my kids. The chairs look so comfortable, love that they have a solid cushion back.

I would be happy with any of them, but I think I like the Lacey best of all. It is sophisticated, but not stuffy and it looks like it would be a dream to clean up afterwards. We've been doing Thanksgiving at our house for the last few years, and I love doing it, but we always have problems with fitting all of the foods,plates,etc... on the table. This year I'm thinking of leaving the food in the kitchen and people can serve themselves ala buffet style, which would leave more room on the dining table for drinks and decorations.

Would LOVE to win the "Lacey" Dining Room Set. The set goes with the look and feel of what I want in my dining room- sophistication, homey atmosphere and a place at the table that says 'stay for as long as you like'...
