I nestled all of the accent pieces in a bed of pip berries–I used a pip berries garland that matches my stair decor highlighted in my Staircase Railing Ideas blog post. I realize that gerber daisies are more of a Spring flower, but I love them so much and I found some made out of burlap, so I went ahead and used them along with a few burgundy and gold ones, and I added a resin cream colored daisy at each corner as well. The first thing that I did was to place the candle holder and a battery operated candle inside of the lantern, then I started to build the surrounding decor. Here is the lantern, (it is metal btw), I’ve measured it for you so that you can see that it is quite large, I love to have a big centerpiece on my kitchen table, I’ve also measured the tray for you: In addition to the lantern, I’ve used a metal mirrored tray, and a black candle holder as the anchors of every one of the centerpieces. I will start with the very first lantern centerpiece that I created last January. For the purposes of this post, I am going to focus on this one type of lantern and show you how I use it to create my kitchen table centerpieces. I use them in several different ways some for centerpieces, some for accents in groupings, and some for side or accent tabletop decor. I buy my share of lanterns in places like Hobby Lobby, Home Goods, and Michaels, all three stores usually have a wonderful selection and I can almost always find one on sale. I felt so fortunate when I stumbled upon the lantern that I will be highlighting in this post actually I own two of the exact same lanterns and I purchased them in two different local craft stores, unfortunately, I cannot find these lanterns anywhere online or I’d leave y’all a link…my sincere apologies…. I use them to accent my decor inside and outside as well. I cannot express to y’all just how much I love lanterns they provide a wonderful basic piece with which to create so many pretty groupings.
