In many families, First Communion or Confirmation is celebrated in a particularly festive way - but how do you decorate the table appropriately for the holiday meal?

Regardless of whether you are celebrating your child's

first communion

or

confirmation

with the immediate family or with the whole family, at home or in the restaurant - the table for the holiday meal on this very special, formative day should be appropriate and festive.

That doesn't mean you have to spend a fortune on it.

DIY ideas for festive table decorations

on the occasion of communion or confirmation.

Make table decorations for communion/confirmation yourself – this is how you make a fish out of boxwood

  • Cut the branches of the

    boxwood

    all to the same length, about

    two inches

    , and remove the leaves at the bottom of the stem.

  • Take a

    60 centimeter long

    aluminum

    wire

    and bend it into a long strand.

  • Then wrap some

    myrtle wire around

    one end of the strand - about an inch apart - and twist the end.

  • Then grab three boxwood branches and wrap them tightly on the decorative wire using the myrtle wire.

    Repeat this procedure until you reach the other end of the deco wire.

    The fish is particularly beautiful for table decorations on the occasion of communion or confirmation if the

    boxwood is tied evenly in all places

    .

  • Finally, knot the myrtle wire at the other end of the decorative wire so that nothing can unravel.

    Protruding remains can be cut off with

    secateurs

    .

  • Now bend the wire into a

    fish

    .

    The intersections of the wire ends can be tied together with a ribbon.

  • Store

    the self-made table decorations for communion or confirmation in a

    cool place

    , then the boxwood will stay nice and fresh until the big day.

    Dove of Peace: Symbolic place cards for table decorations for communion/confirmation

  • Print out the template from

    Presents.co.uk

    and cut out the

    dove

    .

    Then trace the outline of the dove on

    white cardboard

    and cut out the dove of peace.

    With the help of the template, you can draw as many dove outlines as you need place cards for the table decoration for communion or confirmation.

  • Fold the homemade dove of peace in half and glue it together at the head.

    You should cut out a narrow strip on the belly of the dove so that you can attach the peace symbol to the

    glasses

    .

  • Label

    the place cards with the appropriate names and finally spread the wings of the dove of peace a little.

    A self-made lantern provides the necessary illumination on the communion or confirmation table

  • Wrap a piece of

    twine

    around the

    jar

    you want the

    tea light

    to glow in and tie in a knot.

  • Take a

    white feather

    and place it on a

    floral wire

    .

    Tie a bow around the feather and floral wire with a

    white ribbon

    , it holds even better with a double bow.

  • For example, you can cut out a dove from

    white felt

    and attach it to the floral wire with the spring using a wire.

  • Finally, the floral wire must be attached to the cord that was wrapped around the tea light glass and you can use a tea light to provide the right illumination at communion or confirmation - at least as far as the table decorations are concerned.
