Cut your white paper out in a piece that is slightly taller than you jar and wide enough to completely wrap around the empty jar. Now, crumple it into a ball in your hand. Flatten it back out.

Lightly dip your star stamps in the ink of your choice. Press the patriotic stars into the plain side of the white scrapbook paper cut out. Let this dry.

Now, you need to wrap the paper cut out with the designs facing out around the jar. Tie it on with a piece of red, white, and blue ribbon. Insert some white flowers.

To make this simple Patriotic Wedding centerpiece you will need:

Glass Jar

American Flag (paper or real)

Twine

Mums

Rubber band

Stand one American Flag up to your jar.

Cut or fold the end of the flag off at a height that will allow it to be about 2 inches taller than the jar. Use your rubber band to hold the American flag paper or real flag material around the jar. Cover the rubber band with twine, rope, or a pretty solid colored red, white or blue colored ribbon. Insert some white roses or flowers.

Bowl of Floating Spring Flowers and Candles

Fill a large beautiful bowl with some water. Drop in some red food coloring to color your water red.

Now, float some blue floating candles in the water.

Now use the white flowers to float in there. Flowers like daisies will work best. Trim the stem off to about 1 inch from the bud. Place in the middle of your Patriotic Wedding reception table.

To make this Patriotic Wedding centerpiece you will need:

Glass jar

American Flags on Sticks

Red, white or blue Ribbon

Red or white Flowers

Take your American flags on sticks and group them around your jar and hold them in place with a rubber band. Be sure to cover your glass jar completely. Tie a beautiful ribbon in patriotic colors around the rubber band. Insert some red flowers.

Now that was easy!! You can save time by making the bases with the American flags well before your patriotic wedding, and then insert the flowers the day of.

To make this Patriotic Wedding centerpiece you will need:

Large white platter or plate

Red or blue glass paint

White Pillar Candles

Use red or blue porcelain or glass paint to paint on your white platter. You can paint stars and stripes, polka dots, whatever you want in a red, white, and blue patriotic theme.

Let this dry.

Place $10 worth of white pillar candles on the Patriotic Wedding platter. You can buy pillar candle at Michaels Arts and Crafts for as little as $1 a piece.
