i found that decorating a flat mirror with pretty figurines maybe a doily and a small candle in a sconce is very attractive. and a great conversation piece as well.
a pewter fish or something made out of pewter that will compliment the room.
Fresh flowers? Or wood items, something with a really nice interesting grain to it. Or maybe a few really beautiful books.
water fall,fish bowl lots of color, we use conk shells we brought back from bahammas
Hmm...a piece of driftwood maybe...a bowl full of candy (my idea of a good centerpiece), a parrot, a statue, a fish tank, food, a little cactus, balloons, a stick, a giant sculpture made of dishes piled on top of eachother...I dunno.
Why not a little zen garden..Get a dish (kind of flat though), put some sand in it. Throw in some river rocks and there you have a zen garden.
Turn it into a beach getaway. get one of those nice sand filled rock gardens two cute small bonsai trees a barbie sized hammock and have a beach party on your coffee table. You could turn those candles into tiki torches.
A large piece of murano art glass (bowl, vase etc.) See the URL for an example.
buy a piece of glass that will fit the top of your table and place family photos or pictures of tropical fish under glass.
Travel books large picture books depecting tropical getaways is another simple idea.
try some kind of bamboo, like a bamboo candle holder since you like candles but are bored with plain candles, or try growing bamboo in a shallow decorative planter,and there are some palm trees that can be put in small planters and look very nice in a living room.
A really neat bowl maybe with some seashells. Candles are always a good idea. Get different sizes and put them on a glass bowl maybe filled with different colored flat marble like stones.
Buy a brown metal basket from Pier 1 Fill it with potpourri the dark kind I have more compliments from that
1. A small battery operated fountain Yea no cord!!

3. A bonzia tree
4. a collection wooden boxes stacked on top of each other going from largest to smallest.
5. Large seashells placed in a shallow contained
6. A asain style tea set.
