Non-Floral/Candle Centerpieces

I know there have been a few posts like this before from other brides, but I really want to do non-floral/candle centerpieces. I am open to pretty much anything, but could use some suggestions. Okay ladies, ready.. set.. GO!

Re: Non-Floral/Candle Centerpieces

I think right now I'm leaning towards these ccenterpiece ideas. I might even see how hard/expensive it would be to DIY them.

Re: Non-Floral/Candle Centerpieces

Our centerpieces will be a collection of pieces: milk glass, mason jars, bronzed cans, etc. for the shabby chic look. I am using floral elements, though, but handmaking all my 'flowers' from crepe paper & chiffon - just a few stems in the pieces to pull it all together. I have to make a mock-up soon so I can decide if I want to use a Fox Hollow linen or get my own.

Re: Non-Floral/Candle Centerpieces

I am doing glass cylinder vases filled with 4-finish black and silver Xmas balls with black and silver sprays coming out of the tops. I am however spreading red rose petals and ivory votive candles at the base of the cylinders for a little extra color and effect. HTH even a little.

I love the CPs that are branches with the jewels hanging from them! They are so pretty!

Re: Non-Floral/Candle Centerpieces

Another option is the multi height cylinder CP with the floating candle. Im doing this as 1 of my CPs and it will have led lighting with colorful jewels and Ochids in the water. U can leave the Orchids out.

***Edited to add pic.. This is pretty much exactly what I'm getting except my Orchids will be purple/turquoise/blue. You can leave the flowers our and fill it all with jewels or different color balls/marbles..

I want to try to do something like this. Maybe flowers instead of the shade though.
