Centerpieces–Lining & Layering

You know those cool centerpieces you see with all sorts of stuff in vases along with the flowers? Stuff that looks soooo cool and you're wondering, "How did they do that?" Or maybe it's just me who wonders. Well, wonder no more. It's so super easy. All you need is two glass vases, one to set inside the other, and some stuff to put in-between and around the small interior vase. Whether you DIY this with your own vases, or work with your florist to create come cool looks, there are ALL SORTS OF THINGS you can use to help you with the look and feel of your centerpieces. Here are some visual ideas, but make sure you scroll through the pics for more ideas:

I think the red "things" at the top are cranberries. These are some beautiful arrangements!

Louise! :) I LOVE all of these centerpiece ideas! Our centerpieces were one of the very few DIY projects I did for our wedding. They were super easy. I'm totally sharing these ideas on Becoming Mrs. Dial...with FULL attribution to you, of course! :) Miss you, friend!

The center piece with some candies and the the tulip flower is wonderful.
