diy centerpiece trial!

Ashlei, on November 2, 2019 at 11:20 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 1 47
So My wedding isn’t until May 9th but I’m trying to get as much as possible done in advanced. What do you all think about the 2 centers? I was wanting to do 2 different type centerpieces. I’m just worried the lanterns color and the terrariums color will not look good.

    I think the flowers look gorgeous. I really like the terrarium, but i agree with you in the lavender shade, I think it would look better if it was the same shade as the terrarium. But you have until May! You could easily dye the lantern if that’s what you want to do. I just think there are so many gorgeous shades in the flowers that I would introduce another shade in the lantern. I would sue it the shade of the terrarium or one of the shades of the flowers.

    That’s what I was thinking! Maybe dark colored lanterns like the terrarium? I’m going to have 8 tables total (maybe 9 won’t know for sure till I get the official number of guests) so I was thinking 4 of each. I’ve already bought all 4 of the terrariums since hobby lobby had a sale! but already had the 1 lantern so I’ll probably just buy 4 in the darker color.

    I like the glass thing, it’s different and I don’t think I’ve ever seen that at a wedding before!

    I think painting it dark would look best. I love the idea of different centerpieces. I’m looking at terrariums too and vintage birdcages, the lanterns are a super cute idea too! They will look amazing not lavender

    Great Idea! The lanterns are a really nice touch. Changing between the two gives the look variety

    I love the glass option! The lantern is beautiful as well, but I agree in a bit darker color it would be perfect

    I was going for the different style look to try to break up the pattern a little more. So every tables isn’t 100% the same. I really like the white of the lantern and feel like it really makes it pop. Maybe I can pull the glass out of the terrariums and paint them lighter? Idk I’m still messing with different ideas since I have about 6 months left. Ideally I’d like to have my decorations done and in a box ready to go by January so I don’t have to worry about it

    I love the Lantern and the color with the flowers, I feel the terranium gets lost because of how skinny and minimalistic it is with all of those flowers but beautiful still non-the-less

    Thanks everyone! Now I just have to do that 8 more times 😅 and keep them good till May. I think I’ll mess around with the colors of the lanterns/terrariums a bit and see why colors I’m liking for them. It’s spring so I don’t want it to be to dark ya know?

    I think they both look great. I have two completely different centerpieces for our wedding. If you’re worried about the color try a black lantern. But I like them as is !

    I love how it looks! I don’t think it looks bad but could look better if they were the same color. They’re beautiful tho

    I think the lanterns look really good! I would go with just the lanterns. If you want to do both, I would spray paint them to be all one color. The flowers are lovely!
