My DIY Dollar Tree Centerpieces

These are my centerpieces! I am not done, as I have two smaller squares glasses that will go on each side with floating candles. Inside of each square glass will be white, black, and clear marbles. I will also be adding more black marbles to the bottom.
Supplies:
12 pack case of glass cylinders (order from dollartree.com, shipped to store)
Case of black marbles(dollartree.com)
Red roses(bought at dollar tree)
Black ribbon from AC Moore
Gems buckles (www.weddingfactory.com)
Runners-free from another bride! Thank you girl!
I also ordered my glass squares (not pictured) from dollar tree.
What do you think??

Thank you Jeanette, at first I was hesitant, but once me and my bridesmaids started, we didn't stop!

Thanks Lauren! A lot of people laugh when I say Dollar Tree, but it doesn't look that bad

Brillant! I love a good deal!!!! They don't look like $7 centerpieces! Very Pretty! Maybe some more stones??? Or price out aquarium rocks, that might get you more for your buck.

I really like that damask napkin... just an FYI ;) Are you going to use the full runners, or just the napkins?

Hayley, I have a lot of black marbles and will be adding more. We have the square glasses to go on the sides that will have floating candles in them :D Jess and Marie, thank you! Marie, I am a weddingbee stalker! Lol Future Mrs AAA, I am so flattered!!! I just told fh and his little eyes got big lol, he said, sell them, why not? When is your date? Send me a pm whenever you can! I only have ten though. Meghan, I only have those smaller sizes. I will probably buy two red ones for the parents tables, because I might need 12 tables and have only 10 floral centerpieces, so the parents tables will probably get a submerged rose.

Melissa, I will definetly be adding more black marbles, I ordered a full case from Dollar Tree! I just didn't want my daughter to get into them as she likes to grab them ( I lost quite a few when first making them!) Lol I will eventually post a finished centerpiece for sure! :D

Gorgeous! I got everything except the flowers themselves from dollar tree for my centerpieces. I am in love with that store.
