Re: summer centerpieces

you can do candles or sand & sea shells in a nice glass dish with a floating candle or my friend did floating sunflowers in a dish with candles on the tables

i did sand & shells in a vase...the vases cost me $10 each...shells & sand were pretty cheap too.(see my DIY Beach Theme CP album)

Another pretty & cheap idea is a vase filled with fruit like lemons or limes or apples
