Simple Centerpiece~


 So I decided out with the Easter and in with something "new". So I grabbed a few things...mind you, nothing here is really new.

The wood wall plaque is from Ross, I bought if for-eva ago and surprise, surprise the price tag was still attached - I bought that bad boy for $7.99. A handful of wood "feet" from Michael's. A lovely faux plant that has weathered quite nicely over the years. A metal bowl (that I love). And a book wreath - you know you all have one by now! And I simply assembled....

I started by spray painting the "feet" black. Once dry, I glued them onto the wood wall plaque. 

And then I layered in my miscellaneous items...

I like the simplicity. Keep it simple - right?


Have a fan-tab-ulous weekend!

    Love it! So easy and simple but looks like a million bucks! I still don't have a book wreath. It just might have to be put on my to do list!

    This does make a great looking and simple centerpiece. What type wood do you use to attach the feet? I like the idea of adding feet to make things seem to have more pazazz! Great job.

    Hello Chelsea I've missed my visits, but little by little I'm catching up.
    Although last month was difficult with our loses a new month has brought new hope.
    I poured myself a cup of tea and read a spell.
    This centerpiece will be soo versatile as more bloom sprout up.
    I'm so excited to see more of spring. I look forward to applying it's inspirational palette of colors into a few DIY decorations and gifts, with a little baking/cooking in between.
    Don't you love the aroma that fills the air during this season?
    It's definitely invigorating.

    Sweet wishes,
    Sara
