How to Make Fall Themed Wedding Table Centerpieces
- 1). Float select specimens of fallen leaves in crystal clear bowls of water. A low, shallow dish is best and looks great accompanied by floating tea light candles, which are available in leaf shapes.
- 2). Make a pyramid of mini pumpkins and place it in a pot, topiary style.
- 3). Hollow out a pumpkin and use it as a vase to hold an assortment of cut flowers. Depending on the shape and size of your pumpkin, the results may vary. Experiment with different shapes and sizes until you find a look you like.
- 4). Use white corn on the cob and green apples to make centerpieces that don't contain the traditional fall colors. You can hollow out the corn cobs and place a tea light candle on top for an unconventional candelabra.
- 5). Order a quantity of white gourds from a farmer early in the season. Having them specially grown will often not cost more than buying them directly, but it will ease your mind, knowing that the general color and shape of gourd you're looking for is available. White gourds are perfect for fall weddings, and can be made into a vase, a candle, or even left alone in baskets to admire. Gourds come in several sizes, shapes and textures, from smooth hourglasses to short squat lumpy balls. A gourd grower can help you chose the ones you like and grow them especially for you.
- 6). Try wedging a place card into a stick of cinnamon. The curled edge will sometimes hold a card upright, and cinnamon sticks add a fall scent to your wedding table.
