Remember when I told you I was helping my friend Pat with her sons rehearsal dinner? I did some Woodland Theme table decorations HERE. I made a little basket that I wanted to show you in case you need a centerpiece for your Easter dinner that’s not so Eastery! I think you could use this in every season by just adding a few little things here and there.
I’m noooooo floral designer. Not even close so if you are, don’t critique this! I used a garland that was on sale instead of picks…
I just took them apart!
I also took apart a couple of these pretty silver-green ferns…
I love the grapevine basket…which is really not a basket is it?!
Using the glue gun and floral wire I added the different pieces along with a bit of reindeer moss and a few moss “rocks”…
And a tall glass vase with a tiny candle…’cause I didn’t want a giant flame that might catch the thing on fire!
What you can’t see, because I didn’t have batteries (yet) is a tiny strand of lights (with a brown cord) woven through the basket!
This looks really pretty with the other woodland theme table decorations! And I’d tuck in a tiny pumpkin or maybe a little bowl of pumpkins in the center for fall and some holly berries for Christmas…
~Sending love to each of you my friends~
