Tabletop Ideas for Your Next Event



When you’re planning an event, it’s important to think about all the different aspects that make it interesting. Tabletop centerpieces are one example of a simple item that can make a huge difference, and if you choose something unique you will be sure to make a lasting impression on everyone in attendance. Here, we offer a few ideas that stand out from the crowd, with the hopes that they’ll inspire you to find some outstanding ideas of your own.


· Lightbulbs are a bright idea. Putting small plants or flowers into lightbulbs is actually ingenious, because it’s not only an interesting look, it’s also cost-effective.

· Vegetables create a unique look. The natural colors and textures of raw vegetables make them appealing and versatile and can make people feel comfortable and at ease.

· Wine bottles are easy, yet elegant. Bottles left over from another event can be repurposed into lovely centerpieces. Paint them, wrap them in twine, or choose a variety of shapes and sizes, to lend additional visual impact.

· A cloche dome can be whimsical and fun. This is another inexpensive idea, requiring only glass domes and fairy lights to create a magical look.

· Birdcages aren’t just for birds. Choose a vintage birdcage, and fill it top to bottom with layers of flowers and ivy, held in place with a foam block that’s been soaked in water.

· Succulents are simply stunning. In blue, green and purple shades, cactuses and varied succulents make an easy but beautiful tabletop centerpiece.

· What’s easier than tree branches? Sprayed with metallic paint or left bare, they can be hung with candles and charms for a display that’s as simple or intricate as you want it to be.

· Use stalks of wheat to add texture to arrangements. Placed in a mason jar, wheat can be mixed with flowers and tied with a ribbon for an appealing rustic look.

· Utilize technology to impress attendees. Incorporate an iPad into your centerpiece, and you can share images and event information on the screen.
