Hi. This is Susan Paxton for Expert Village and today we built a beautiful center piece for our dining room table. Some other center pieces that you could do that are fairly simple. Done very similar to this is our little daisy basket. Gives more of a country air. More of a fresh feeling to it. We did the same thing. We took the basket, added the floral foam. Added water, put in our greens and added our flowers. And with this one we added a little bow. So that gives you another idea of how to do a center piece. This one is more tall. And kind of gives us a totally different feeling for our dining room table. This you would be able to use even if you had guests because it's so compact in the middle that your guests could still see around it and visit across the table. We did the same thing. We took an elegant brass bowl. We added our green floral foam. We added our greens and this we took alstermaria and made like a topiary tree out of it. Adding some to the lower vase and a little special green up the side and added a bow and ribbon to it to add a special touch to it. So there's a lot of things that you can do with center pieces for your tables. Just need a few flowers and a little creativity and some greens and a nice little bowl and you've got a nice center piece.
