How to Layer a Fall Table Centerpiece | Creativecaincabin.comHere’s an easy Thanksgiving centerpiece that only requires one stop to pick up all the items. I gathered mine up after class one day at our local farmers market. I love one stop shopping, it saves so much time, and time is something I don’t have a lot of these days. While I was getting it all around I thought you might like to see my plan for layering everything.

WATCH THE HOW TO VIDEO

How to Layer a Fall Table Centerpiece | Creativecaincabin.comFirst I removed the Fall arrangement that was currently in place, and started by adding a brown and tan grainsack runner. Next came the wood slices and the green glass vases. Make sure you add things in odd numbers it will be more pleasing to the eye. For instance there are 3 vases, and 5 wood slices. 

How to Layer a Fall Table Centerpiece | Creativecaincabin.comThen I topped each wood slice with a mini pumpkin and started adding flowers to the vases. I did stop along the roadside and cut the cattails I thought they would add some good texture and height to the arrangement. 

How to Layer a Fall Table Centerpiece | Creativecaincabin.comNext I added some branches from a shrub, the bright yellow pop of color was needed and it also filled in the mid range for height. I’m hoping to get several days of enjoyment from the flowers, and my cat seems to like them too. 

How to Layer a Fall Table Centerpiece | Creativecaincabin.comWe won’t be having a large crowd for Thanksgiving this year so a simple arrangement like this will work out perfectly.

      Ann, I used to love a crowd but now am happy with just the 4 of us, it makes for less work.

    Simply beautiful!

    I would copy you a bit, but we won’t have room on the table for much of a centerpiece when we get all the people and foot to the table. But, I can do a shorter/smaller take off.

    Thanks for the inspiration.

    I feel better to know am not only one to pick greenery or whatever along the road. I carry a pair of scissors in my glove box to cut coupons and greenery/flowers, those scissors have come in handy many times.
    I used to get your posts, been a long time, maybe a year or more, I tried to subscribe again but was told am already on the list. As soon as I saw your photo I remembered you. I always enjoyed your posts/blog. Hope all is good in your life. I saw your blog name on “The Country Farm Home” post so had to come on over, was just thinking about your blog other day. Glad I found you again.
    Your arrangements are so gorgeous, you’re a natural flower arranger.
    Happy week and season

      Jane thank you for looking me up again. I have no idea why things change and you are no longer getting my updates, it’s always a mystery. I carry nippers in my purse all the time and am always cutting things from the roadside, it makes for a cheap arrangement. I should think about putting them in my glove box too, they get heavy in my purse.

    beautiful idea I love all the great colors and real or silk I am sure that I could find similar flowers and have a few of those green vases as well. Yes this year our thanksgiving table will have a layered look thanks

      Angie my flowers are real but you could certainly use silk as well. I always think Hobby Lobby has the most realistic looking faux flowers.

      Maria, thank you for such a kind comment. It’s cold and we need the heat on here now, so it sure feels like fall.

    The center pieces are beautiful but your guests will not be able to see one another across the table. My suggestion would be to raise the vases or hang your bouquets from the chandelier. Happy crafting!

    Really looks great, Dawn! The cattails are my favorite in the flower arrangements! And green vases are wonderful for so many seasons of the year. I have two very large ones and I use them year round…. all seasons. Great look!!

      Diane I love it when things can be used over and over again. I need to downsize my decor items again and just keep what I use often and love.
