Dollar Tree Centerpieces? Show yours!

Future Mrs. Riley, on May 19, 2012 at 6:04 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 22

Ive changed my centerpieces several times, and now that time is getting closer, Im opting for a cheaper option. So if you have used Dollar Tree for any of your decorations please let me know the quality etc. Thanks!

    I know of a bride on here that used mostly everything from Dollar Tree, half of my stuff was from there. I got the big bowls and filled votives from Michales with 40% off coupons, the starfish and sand dollars from eBay as well as the led tea lights. It ended up being about $10-15 each which was a heck of a lot cheaper than I thought.

    I glued glass taper candle holders to vases with glass clue. I ordered a case of each online and had them sent to the store for free. I think it turned out nice.

    Here's ours , we will have floating candles in them. 7 inch cylinder vases from dollar tree. We ordered online and had shipped to the store because our store didn't have any in. Bought the ribbon and little flowers from Michaels for about $13, and there was leftovers.

    I'm sorry, but I don't remember who made this... but it is a dollar store fish bowl gorilla glued to the dollar store candle stick.

    More dollar store vases...

    More...

    another idea... go to a garage store or thrift store, buy a set of dishes. Get some gorilla glue, candle sticks, and make dessert dishes. Could be pretty as a centerpiece, too.

    I went to the store to get the stuff I needed. I have one right by my house that had everything I needed so I didn't have to pay for any shipping. I got the cylinder vases, blue glass stones, and shells from the dollar store.

    I got the glassware for our centerpieces from Dollar Tree already, but I haven't assembled them yet. I went in for one small thing and walked out with three bags full of glassware!

    The lanterns I bought on sale at Michaels for 75% off (I think that brought them down to around $9 each. They had glass inside but not on the bottom so would not hold water. I bought tall enough glass cylinders from the Dollar Store and then knocked out the glass that was in the lanterns and put in the glass vases from Dollar Tree. A few silk flowers and a floating candle were all I had to add. Under $20 for each centerpiece.

    Hayley C. - I am using those for my table decor. Did you get the glasses at the physical store or did you order them? Every time I try to order them they are out of stock. Smiley sad

    Rachelle J. ~ those are examples I've collected for budget brides. I used my hall's free centerpieces. Which glasses? I just tried to order 4 cases of wine glasses and it said ready for delivery.... http://www.dollartree.com/kitchen-tableware/drinkware/Drinkware/Luminarc-Clear-Wine-Glasses-with-Facet-Cut-Stems-10-oz-/213c264c377p319342/index.pro?method=search#
