Re: E party centerpieces

candles with rose petals around them or you can DIY flowers for a fraction of the price it would be if you went with a florist

Re: E party centerpieces

You can do potted plants and if you want plant them afterwards or do faux flowers. I ended up doing fake flowers for mine because I decided the morning of that I didn't like my centerpieces that kept blowing over cause we had a lil wind and everyone said how cute the colors are. I can try to take some pics and post them for you if you'd like to give you an idea.

I did small 8' vases (Walmart $1 ea) with clear and red stones and floating candles w/ mirror base and petals around it. All my guests loved em. Go 2 surroundings.com for inspiration, that's what I did. If u have any questions FM me.

We had message in a bottle invitations, so for our CPs we got clear bottles (from Michaels), they came with invitations that you could roll up and tie with a ribbon. No one can see that it's an invitation since it's rolled up. We put them in the bottle, and filled each up with colored sand. Then we corked them.

There's a little lei around the top of each bottle, and we're going to decorate the area around the bottle with seashells & starfish (fake starfish!)
