DIY - Dyed Water Centerpieces
By Carlise (Carla) Shepperd
I love the look that colored vases give but they can be expensive especially when a Bronze Budget Bride can find vases for just $1.00 at a local Dollar Tree or even here online at their website! Another option to using a colored vase would be to dye the water in the vase instead. It's an affordable way to make a cheap centerpiece look more Platinum!






You can find Water Dye here on Save-on-Crafts for $5.99!

How to create Ostrich Feather Centerpieces
By Carlise (Carla) ShepperdYou will need 15-30 ostrich feathers per arrangement. 40 if you want it very full.
20 Highest Quality Bleached White Male Ostrich Feather Plumes (22-28" tall) $4.99 each
Start by placing the longest feathers along the bottom edge of the floral foam in the bouquet holder that cost just $2.99 or 12 for $1.60 each.
You want to work your way around the bouquet holder bottom and place the longer feathers around the bottom or it. As you move to the top of the bouquet holder your feathers can get shorter. The bouquet holder will fit in the top of vase.
24" Frosted Glass Eiffel Tower Vases $10.99 each
Order 6 for $9.19 each
Make your feather arrangements a few days before the event so the feathers have time to relax and get the proper shape.
The day of the event place your floralytes, 10 for $25.00, in the vase (bouquet holder fits in the top). You get to choose from ten different colors, so you'll find the one to match your theme or use white and you will still get a dramatic effect.
Fill the vase with Colorfill Vase Filler, 2lbs for $ 6.59, to help the light illuminate it.
You can also use a vase light, 3 for $13.00, to illuminate it from the bottom up. Place a floralight in the feathers themselves for an extra accent light.
