Centerpieces

Options
Found this article from the Martha stewart web site. Excellent ideas for center pieces.

A round mirror (you can buy packs from Ikea) placed in the center, small vase of roses/flowers and then place the tea light candles arond the flowers. The reflection becomes a pool of light.

There are 50 to look at. Excellent for those doing the catering themselves.

    Sounds lovely. I actually thought the bottles with the big table numbers on was a novel idea. Also the frosted glasses with candles in. You can buy cheep plain glasses, spray them with etching spray (from B&Q I think) through a doily for the lace effect. Perfect!!

    I liked the one with the laced candles, but my fave was the 3 vases with roses. Not cheap though.....
    I liked the favour boxes too, but then you'd need something else as well, as once these were taken, which could be within a minute, it would look bare, and you'd need something for the evening anyway.
    Love MSE, Las Vegas and chocolate!

    We had dried flowers (a bit like pot pourri) sprinkled over the tables which added a bit of colour and tea lights.
