Creating a Fun Valentine’s Day Table

February 14, 2015 By Shelley Leave a Comment

Valentine's Day Centerpiece

Using Grocery Store Flowers for the Valentine’s Day Centerpiece

I have a secret…

Well a secret stash that is.

No y’all….not drugs or even a secret wine stash.

My habit is fresh flowers.

And vases.

And anything I can make hold flowers and water.

Like kids rubber boots, tea cups, jam jars, pitchers and funky baskets.

They make it easier to go to the grocery store and grab a bunch of flowers.

Like when you are trying to pull together something fun for Valentine’s Day in a big ‘ole hurry!

Creating a Fun Valentine’s Day Centerpiece and Table

I love this funky little red sequin basket I found a few years back.

I grabbed a bundle of blush/coral roses tipped in a rosey color.

They are such a beautiful color and I knew they would brighten up these grey winter days.

 I cut fresh florist foam to fit inside.

Then I started building the shape around the handles of the basket.

Add some fun to the Cupid’s day table

I thought these whimsical candles were a fun match.

Then threw a few red hot hearts and conversation hearts around.
