Step 1
Choose a large milk-glass container to create
the main centerpiece for the center of the table
and/or buffet. Secure a hairpin holder into the
container with adhesive clay, and arrange a
varied selection of flowers into the container.
Step 2
Choose additional smaller
containers and vases—or
even bell peppers—and create
monobotanical designs in some
of them and fill others with
flowering plants. Place them to
accessorize the main centerpiece.
Step 3
Mix into the collection tiered
serving stands filled with a variety
of fresh fruit and confections, like
cakes, cookies and candies.
Lay stems of seasonal foliages
and a few pieces of fruit on the
table and/or buffet.
Finish accessorizing with taper
and pillar candles.
