Christmas centerpieces

We have a fairly long dining room table so one of my favorite things to do in preparation for the holidays is make my centerpieces. They stay somewhat similar but I might change my color scheme depending on the season. This time I went with very neutral tones. I used cream and burnt hydrangea (one of my favorite flowers), cream roses, and long stems with feathers. I’m really liking feathers lately. This weekend Hobby Lobby was having 50% off all their floral, so I took advantage.




Here is a step by step of how I put them together.

I first cleaned out my vases



I then started stuffing my vases with a filler. I chose pinecones. Tip: you can also use scented ones.





I clipped all the leaves from their stems so I could apply them at a later time.



Arrange the flowers as you like in the vase



Voila!


 

Hope ya'll like these how-to tips. Lemmie know. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated!!
