I need your help. I've bought a whole bunch of christmas ornaments (on super sale after the holidays) and want to make centerpieces out of them for my December wedding.
I'm torn between two options - either putting them in a bowl, or making wreaths out of them.
I'm going to surrond the centerpieces with voltive candles.
this is such a cool idea. i agree with both knudsonwedding and dressexpress! i saw something like this in the cb2 catalog where they piled a bunch of them in a cylinder and it looked so chic. i do love the idea of the wreaths on the back of the chairs though!
I don't think I explained it properly though. I didn't actually make these centerpeices in the pictures - they are the ones I am using for inspiration.
Mine will consist of blue and silver ornaments.
Does this alter anyone's choice? (It looks like the bowl idea is clearly winning!)

Which looks best?
OPTION 1: In a Bowl
OPTION 2: in a wreath
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP IN ADVANCE!!

posted by knudsonwedding 194 posts 7 months agoI think they'd look cool in tall and medium height cylinders as a centerpeice. Maybe wreaths on the doors of your reception entrance?

posted by trisch84 18 posts 7 months agoI vote bowl as well. It's unique. What fabulous color and contrast!
