Centerpiece

I have not wanted to put my Christmas decor away, and haven't put much of it away yet, I just love it too much! One thing I have decided to do though is redo my centerpiece to a non Christmas themed one.

 I placed my items on a cake stand, and put a regular door hanging wreath around the bottom. The spear shaped thing is actually a Christmas tree ornament I thought it looked nice laying there.

My inspiration for my center piece was the centerpiece my Mother recently did. I tried to use lots of mercury glass as she did to get a similar look.


I am very happy with it. I am actually sitting at my table with my laptop making this post so I can sit here and enjoy it.

  4. Your centrepiece is beautiful, it reminds me of a very lavishly deorated Christmas cake covered with thick white Royal icing.

  6. Wonderful idea for a centerpiece! It looks very festive and wintry. I hadn't thought of combining a cakestand with a wreath, but it looks fabulous!

  7. Very elegant centerpiece. You always seem to look at objects in a new way and pull things together so creatively.

  12. I'm loving your centerpiece. I can certainly understand why you don't want to put your Christmas decos away. Your things look so wintery. I don't think they need to be tucked away.

    I'd love to have you join Seasonal Sundays.

  13. The centerpiece is beautiful, even better since you already had the elements to make it. What a pleasant piece to admire.

    Thanks for sharing this great idea at Potpourri Friday!
