It is a little challenging coming up with a new centerpiece every year. So of course, I checked out Pinterest for ideas.
This year, I used the vases that I had bought for Emily's wedding last year.
I used some Epson's salts at the bottom, then layered tinsel, ornaments, and pinecones. The pinecones that look like flowers came from Richmond 40 years ago. My aunt Jean had a friend that lived in a townhouse that had a pine tree in the yard. The year I lived there, Jean went and picked up a bag full for me. When I google it, it says they are Cedar Roses from the Deodar Cedar tree. I had used them years ago to make a natural wreath and have been hoarding the rest ever since. The beauty of this project is they are still reusable.
I topped the vases with a sprig of Douglas Fir cut from the Christmas tree. I think it looks nice for something that I haven't done before. I might add some more pine branches over the mirror.
