Numero dos! I like mixing things up, so why not have some variety? I began thinking about having a second centerpiece when I couldn't find any more tea sets from the first one on sale. I also thought it may be easier to give away two different sets than just one when the wedding is said and done. This too, started out differently:
I had intentions of including a tea tin to hold real flowers, but the tin's red was a bit too orange for my liking. Since I decided to use the silk flower, I used the saucer to hold it instead. The varying height of the components work better with this set up. I also like how this second centerpiece compliments the look and meets the same criteria as the first.
Cost Breakdown:
- Tea-for-one sets - $5.95 ea*
- Tea lights - $0.12 for 3**
- 1/4 bag of red beans - $0.25
- Silk rannunculus - $1.00**
- TOTAL: $7.32 per centerpiece
* I bought six sets from HERE to get the bulk discount and I used a free shipping coupon (saved me 46%!)
** See details in cost breakdown from centerpiece #1
Cheap Tip #50: Always search for a coupon when shopping online.
I love these!
