Dining Room Table Centerpiece Emergency!!!

any ideas for a dining table centerpiece? I'm tapped out, this endeavor has been practically impossible.

below is my table (so oblong pieces are out). my chairs are upholstered (very tailored) parson chairs so anything too contemporary will look out of place. also I'm no fan of fake florals. (aka dust collectors.) help! akk.

thanks ladies.


you're welcome.

Re: Dining Room Table Centerpiece Emergency!!!

Re: Dining Room Table Centerpiece Emergency!!!

ladies, you rock. I love these websites! I didn't see any centerpieces that knocked my socks off (maybe I'm too picky?) but I did see a few other items that I'm getting. if you have any other ideas, keep 'em coming.

mwah.


you're welcome.
