Flower Centerpieces

Use small vases or old jam and jelly jars to create charming centerpieces down the length of the table top. Bring in a classic design using simple roses nestled within the small vase. Use pale yellows and peaches to create an elegant design that can be taken home as a party favor. Group roses together with small narcissus and tulip bulbs for a fusion of color and elegance. For the dinnerware, use all white.This allows the colorful centerpieces to stand among the table top. Add a sprig of lavender or a rose petal to the top of the napkins for a splash of color on the plate.

Donuts and Milk

Create a truly sweet table top design using doughnuts and milk. This fun and unexpected table top creation is perfect for a kids table at a wedding or for a festive birthday party. Use a cake stand to stack glazed and sprinkle-covered doughnuts to make the doughnut centerpiece. Around the doughnuts, fill clear milk jugs with strawberry, chocolate and regular milk. The colors in the milk mixed with the frosting colors create a well balanced design to the table. Add small decorative cups filled with napkins and straws to use for eating and drinking at the doughnut table top. This arrangement is not just for kids. You can substitute coffee for milk and use this as the dessert table at a dinner party.
