Centerpieces for your reception, bridal shower, or any party have the potential to make or break the entire decor. With that being said, they can also be quite pricey when purchasing centerpieces from a vendor. Our remedy to this problem…do it yourself!

There are three great places that come to mind when I think diy and those are the Dollar Tree, Ikea and Michael’s. Think outside the box to come up with some great ideas such as these:

This idea from Weddingbee was simply superb.

Purchase several glasses and candles of different heights and sizes. Place the candles in the glasses and arrange them to your liking in the center of the table. Once lit, scatter flower petals, either real or fake around your candle arrangement and watch the magic!

Another fabulous idea is to take old mason jars and wrap them with pastel tissue paper, filling the bottom of the jar with water and rocks after placing fresh flowers in the jar. Tie a dainty bow around the jar and taaadaa! You have created a one of a kind centerpiece!
