Find some different size smallish boxes. Wide and low, taller and smaller, short and wide, short and low, wide and high....etc. Place them on the table in different places, (well spaced to avoid a crowded look) tallest to the back and then cover with a table cloth. Adjust the boxes as necessary until you have acheived a good High-low set up, pressing the fabric down in the spaces between the boxes. Use velvet or satin if you have it. If not, just use whatever you think looks good. Black is a good color if the items are light colored. White or ivory if they are dark colored. Just experiment with that. Then place your items on the boxes and if there is enough space in between you can place items there too. High-low setups are visually appealing and dispel the 'garage sale' appearance.
