July is over so it’s time to change up the dining table center piece again. Let’s look around the house to see what I can come up with. I’m going to start with a square white plate as the base.
I found this cute little sand dollar on a beach in Florida. Since I want the center piece to have a beachy feel, this will work perfectly.
I looped some string through it so it will be able to hang from something in the display.
Then I looked through my paper stash for some fun Summer paper to place in a frame.
I bought this frame last year at Hobby Lobby. It was on clearance for $1.20. It would be super easy to duplicate this look. I think I’ll try making some for around my home.
It’s also the perfect place to hang the cute little sand dollar.
Next, I added a metal star in the perfect shade of blue/green.
And an insulator in a pretty blue also. I know an insulator isn’t very beachy, but it was the right color of blue and was the right height for the display.
Last but not least, I added lots of sea shells. Most of these shells came from Florida.
Here’s the completed center piece. I think I might add something else to the center of the frame. It still looks a little empty to me. But other than that I’m pleased.
It also meets Hubby’s requirement of the centerpiece not being too tall to see over. This little sand dollar is my favorite part.
Do you change up your centerpiece often?
