Centerpiece ideas, out of the box into the pantry


On a super tight budget... look no further than your pantry for inspiration. 

I am all about going beyond the cookie cutter when it comes to decorations for weddings. Your centerpiece can be one of a kind by using these simple and easy to find items from dried beans and noodles to lentils, rice or even coffee beans.... 

I love this idea of using mismatched stemware, and and silk flowers. Definitely and unexpected twist.

Or how about this idea using dried pinto beans, daisies and containers from the Dollar Store.

This is a great idea- split peas and a spider mums. The lovely chartreuse green color with unique texture look amazing in glass vases combined with the graceful lines of the mum.

Again right out of the pantry, long grain white rice and gorgeous orchids make and elegant centerpiece.

 I love this idea for a fall wedding - whole nuts anchoring pillar candles, simple, rustic and elegant and best of all easy on your wallet.
