Elegant & Classy Centerpieces!

Hey everyone!! This past weekend I attended a very special suprise birthday party and was asked to do christmas theme decorations. It was an awesome idea to incorporate a christmas theme in which my creativity just started flowing without skipping a beat! I immediately thought classy and elegant because that is what best described the birthday honoree. To make a simple idea elegant and classy will take you about 10 minutes! For around $75 I was able to make 12 centerpieces, buy table decor and purchase a dozen balloons! Below is an overview of the materials I used. All materials were purchased from the Dollar store and Party City.

Here's what I did:
The centerpieces included 12 glass vases with a green ribbon bow tied around the neck of the vase attached with a christmas birthday lable (from ETSY.com) and tealights to give it an elegant glow.

The table decor was white table clothes with red rose petals and some happy birthday confetti.

I also bought about a dozen red, green and silver balloons and instead of attaching them to the tables, we cut the strings short and had them hang from the ceiliing over the dance floor!

We added some rose petals in the bottom of the vase to give it more dramatic effect

I love thse labels. The birthday honoree loves owls and in honor of the christmas theme I thought they were perfect!
I found them on Etsy! Custom made for about $9 with shipping for 24 lables


I hope you all enjoyed this blog post!!! Get creative this christmas!!! I'll be blogging my wrapping tips soon! Happy Holidays everyone!! Leave me some comments!!!
