How to Create a Large Christmas Centerpiece

If you have a large Christmas table that many guests sit around and you want a large centerpiece to set in the middle this article will show you how to create one. Many times when we think about large decorations, we think of a large price tag; however, this is a budget friendly centerpiece idea that makes a big statement. Do you want to wow your guests with a large piece to feast their eyes upon. Here is how to do just that simply, yet beautifully.

GET LARGE VASES: Get three large vases that are different shapes and heights. One could be a glass fish tank, the oval kind. Another could be a tall cylinder vase. And the last one could be a squatty round vase. These are simply options to choose from, you can use any large vase that you find and like in a craft or retail store. Think big!

USE CLEAR MARBLES: Get some iridescent marbles. These are the marbles that look clear, but tend to reflect colors that are near them. You could also simply get clear marbles or fish tank stones if you wish.

FAUX POINSETTIAS: Get some fake long stemmed poinsettia Christmas flowers. You will only need three long stem poinsettias for this centerpiece. Make sure that they have long enough stems to reach the bottom of the vases that you chose to use.

CREATE YOUR LARGE CENTERPIECE: Fill the bottoms of the three vases with the marbles. Distribute the marbles evenly among the three vases. At this point you could add water, to make the centerpieces look real, or you can leave the water out if you are worried about spills. Place one of the long stemmed poinsettias in each one of the vases. Arrange them pointing in different directions until you like the look of the arrangement. The marbles help hold the flowers in place to make the arranging easier for you.

It's that simple. Your large centerpiece for your large entertaining Christmas table is complete. As an option, to add more to your centerpiece you could put some small plates around your centerpiece with chocolate candies or brownies for your guests. You might also consider glitter spraying the vases for extra holiday sparkle. Add a bow around the flowers or the vases if you wish. Add to the centerpiece in your own special way to make it uniquely yours and fresh.
