Autumn centrepiece design idea

There are many ways to decorate a table with flowers. Colour, texture and style can be added through more conventional centrepieces or an elegant tablescape. While centrepieces are limited to a basket, vase or other container, tablescapes can extend or extend to the surrounding areas of the table. Tablescapes are often used on a larger scale in shop windows, and you may even notice your favourite florist using this method to catch your eye as you pass by. They can also be used to decorate various events or even if you want to brighten up your home. Here’s how to make your own autumn centrepiece.

What you need:

  • Seasonal blooms
  • Red, yellow, and orange accessories
  • Foliage
  • Nuts, acorns and similar dried items
  • Dried sticks and branches
  • Shrubs and/or moss
  • Wreaths or wooden baskets
  • Stone, gold, or brass-coloured urns/pedestals

Instructions:

  • To begin making your autumn centrepiece, you need to decide between fresh, dried and artificial flowers. Each option has its own pros and cons so keep this in mind when choosing.
  • Create the base for your display by attaching floral foam to your pedestal or pedestals. Fresh flowers need water so the foam will need to be hydrated before you secure it to the holder.
  • You can use seasonal flowers if you wish and make sure that you choose the right colours such as red, yellow and orange.
  • Focal flowers should be placed in the middle of the arrangement with mass flowers surrounding them and then some fillers and foliage to fill in the gaps.
  • Next, it’s time to add some accents like branches, sticks and berries.
  • Once the floral foam is completely concealed, you can place your display in the centre of the table.
  • Add dried leaves, nuts, acorns and other seasonal decorations along the table.
  • You can also add some seasonal fruit to a wicker basket and place this on the table too.

By following these simple steps, you can create a truly unique and captivating autumn centrepiece. If you use artificial or dried flowers, the display will last significantly longer than a fresh display. You can even pack everything up once autumn comes to an end and use them the following year.
