Event Planning How To! Winter Center Piece

Dinner parties are always fun. Having company over for a nice meal with a few glasses of wine and getting to know each other, sounds so deliciously cozy. Do you want a beautiful centerpiece for everyone to marvel at but have no idea how to set it up. Well we have a solution for you!

Here is a simple and beautiful center piece that will warm up any table! 

You will need:

A few votives (about 6 should be fine).
A package of small candles that will fit the votives .
Two squared vases. 
Two circular vases in different sizes. 
Some fresh flowers (choose any flowers you'd like). 
A package of pine cones.

All of these items are purchasable in your local Crate and Barrel, Target, Floral or home ware store.

Next , follow these easy steps.

1. Place the smaller circular vase on top of the bigger circular vase in the center of the table (Make sure that you are able to place flowers inside the smaller vase).

2. Turn the squared vases upside down and place them next to the circular vases. 

3. Scatter the votives around the vases (you can place one on top of the squared vases as well).

4. Place the candles in some of the votives but leaving one or two empty. 

5. Place some fresh flowers inside the small circular vase and inside the empty votives. 

6. Next place some pine cones around the vases and votives to give it an Autumn atmosphere. 

7. Lastly, light the candles and watch your centerpiece come to life! 


Once the night is finished, you can leave the decoration on your table until the flower dries or when you decide to change it up again. This centerpiece is simple to make and easy to clean up. So what are you waiting for? Start planning your next dinner party!

Winter Table Center Piece

It's that time again. The weather is starting to get colder and the days are becoming shorter and it's almost time to start making your christmas list! We know you want to decorate your home for the holidays but we also know it can be quite expensive buying new decorations every year. Well we have a solution for you!

Here is a simple and cost efficient table piece that will brighten up any table! 

You will need:

A package of pine cones.
A small (or big) glass container.
A package of sea glass (in any color you'd like).

All of these items are purchasable in your local Kmart, Target, or home ware store.

Next , follow these easy steps.

1. Pour in enough sea glass to fill the bottom of your glass container. You can pour as much as you want to your liking ( I like mine about a 3rd full)

2. Drop a pine cone inside on top of the sea glass (we recommend just one...keep it simple!)

3. Make more!

Once the holidays are over, you can save the glass containers and the sea glass for your next decoration! You'll have items you can reuse over and over all year around for all your special occasions!

Jessie
