Wedding preparations are almost done!!!! These pictures show the very simple centerpieces I made for the tables at my daughter's reception. They picked a movie theme, and her colors are ocean blue (light teal
), silver gray, and black.We started off shopping at IKEA for vases. These vases were originally a cream color, but with a few coats of Krylon spray paint, they are transformed. Add in some white flowers, silver leaves and "fillers" and some sticks found in the yard/garden painted black, and you have all the fixings for a nice arrangement.
We set each of the vases on top of an arrangement of old movie reels, spray painted in black, silver and ocean blue, and added a votive candle. We also have movie theme picture frames that will be holding black and white baby photos of the bride and groom.
It cost less than $350 to create centerpieces for 17 tables (and the biggest share of that cost was for the movie reels); much of that can be recouped after the ceremony if we resell the reels and vases.
Very simple and easy enough for anyone to do!!!
Be sure and check out my show schedule. "Junk Salvation" is done, but still have three craft shows to go!! Next show in less than 1 month!!! Am planning to have lots of ornaments and other holiday pieces.
Haven't been able to paint much the past few days, but I hope to have another project finished by this weekend. Check back in a few days!!
