Decorate a Vase Base for a Stunning Table Centerpiece

Creative Bases for Vases, Hurricanes, Cylinders

Decorate Your Centerpiece Vases Creatively This Spring! Here's a couple of ideas to make a table centerpiece with flair. Impress your guests with your extraordinary talent for decorating! Using a vase, hurricane candleholder or glass cylinder with artificial or real flowers and make a stunning table centerpiece. This is a concept that you can use with fresh or artificial flowers. If using fresh flowers, plan not to display for long periods unless you moisten and wind the stems like the pros.

Changing the napkin color and flower choices can give this arrangement a whole new look.

Replace the flowers with ivory roses, the napkin with an ivory napkin or silky piece of fabric, and the frosted shell with our beige shell and you can have a stunning wedding table centerpiece.

If you want to use a real candle don't use the grassy floral stems because they may catch on fire. The row of flowers with the napkin will work beautifully on the own!
