Table Toppers
The table is the most important thing to decorate, when planning and putting together a party. A table centerpiece is to the party’s food, as a husband is to a wife on a chilly night –it makes everything warm and cozy. Flowers have been tried and tested for this job, but there are other options aside from fragrant blooms when deciding on your table decor. There are those that add extra lighting. Others you’d find everywhere but the table. And there are those that serve a dual purpose as appetizer and party trimming.
When putting together your centerpiece, make sure your guests can see each other above or through your decor and don’t forget to leave space for the food. Mood lighting, you may already be using candles for mood lighting, but how about putting them front and center instead of scattered all around? With a pretty tray of non-flammable metal or glass as a base, group together at least five candles of similar shape and color.
