Reflect the magical elements of the movie with Barbie’s love for sparkles and glitter. Incorporate star-shaped ornaments or fairy lights on your tree to evoke a sense of enchantment, or diamond-inspired elements, sequined runners and chic tableware in your table settings for a touch of elegance. Consider using metallic finishes like silver and gold to elevate your dining experience.
