Materials
Alright, friend, let me break down everything you’ll need for this fantastic project. Then, get ready to gather some supplies!
- 3D wreath form
- Floral wire
- White foam disk
- Hot glue gun
- Pair of scissors
- Several bouquets of artificial flowers (I used 6, but if you are making a centerpiece with one color flower, you may not need as many)
- Round Glass Candle Holder
- Pliers
- Vase filler
- Battery-operated candle
How To Make a Table Centerpiece With a 3D Wreath Form
Assemble the 3D Wreath Form
Follow the instructions on the back of the package to put the wreath form together. To assemble the 3D wreath form, start by placing the metal fixture over the wire. This is the important part: secure the end of the metal fixture by wrapping it around the wire. Repeat these steps for the rest of the wire, and ta-da! You’ve successfully put the 3D wreath form together. Super easy, right?
If the form is still shaky, use some floral wire to wrap around the bars for extra support. Stability is important!
Prepare the Foam Base
Take a Styrofoam disk and use your scissors to carve a line where you want one of the bars to sit. Then, lightly push the 3D wreath form into the Styrofoam, creating grooves for the other bars. Apply hot glue along the carved line and insert the wreath form into the groove, holding it until it’s steady. Add more hot glue on top of the bars for added stability. If you don’t have a second foam disk, don’t worry! Cut a foam block to size and shave off the corners to fit snugly inside the wreath form.
Securing the Flowers
Now, friend, it’s time to get creative with the artificial flowers. First, cut each flower, leaving a bit of stem to poke into the foam. Next, cover the sides and the entire bottom of the foam with flowers, leaving the top open for your candle holder. You can choose a colorful mix or a sophisticated monochromatic look. Remember to fluff out the flowers, separate the petals and leaves, and fill in any gaps to make your centerpiece complete and gorgeous.
Adding the Finishing Touches to the Table Centerpiece
Don’t forget to use pliers to remove the little metal piece at the top of the wreath form. If you’re feeling fancy, add a dollop of hot glue to the top of the wreath form and attach some cut artificial flowers for an extra cute touch. Lastly, fill your candle holder with vase filler, place your battery-operated tea lights inside, and let the magical glow bring your centerpiece to life.
Desplaying and Maintaining the Table Centerpiece
Displaying the centerpiece is a breeze! Find a great spot on your table or any flat surface that showcases its beauty. Consider using a decorative tray or runner underneath to create a focal point. And don’t be afraid to get creative – you can elevate it with stacked books, add a pop of color with coordinating accessories, or even place it on a mirrored surface for extra glam.
To maintain your centerpiece, keep it dust-free by gently wiping it with a soft cloth or using a feather duster. If any flowers or decorations become loose or damaged, simply reposition or replace them.
