Creative Concepts For Home Re-decorating By Making Use Of Flower Vase Centerpieces
July 25, 2010 by: John EdmondWhen you don’t want a floral arrange that takes up a lot of space on a table, vase centerpieces are a great idea. You can combine vase centerpieces and floral arrangements for maximum impact and minimal table space.
Tower vases come in a variety of sizes and colors. To match the color of the flowers or other table ornamentation, one can choose to purchase the glass centerpiece in a suitable color. Make sure your tower centerpiece vase is well weighted in the bottom so it won’t be top heavy one you put your arrangement in as they can be up to 24 inches high which makes they easily top heavy. In order to increase the effect of the presence of the vase, have a light decoration along the tower vase.
When creating a tower vase flower arrangement you should pick a pleasing color and size of vase. For a longer lasting bloom, and to kill bacteria, wash the vase with bleach. Then pour water in the vase till it reaches the halfway mark.
You can add a little plant food to increase the longevity of the flowers. Place a few stems of a flower, preferably white cherry blossoms or mini calla lilies, into the vase. Arrange curly willow stems and sprays of grass in your case for an elegant display.
Use dried flowers, ribbons or other decorations to decorate the tower vase centerpieces. You can also fill 3/4 of the vase with water and put flower stems which are submerged and place a few floating candles.
For creating a romantic mood at dinnertime, use tower tea light holders. The centerpieces are available in a variety of metals and come in colors such as metallic black, silver, and gold.
Each centerpiece contains a recess perfect for a tea light, which serves as a gorgeous focal point in any table setting. A floral arrangement coupled with the centerpiece will add the final touch to your decorations.
