This spring wedding centerpiece mimics the look of a field of daisies! It is so charming and cute. Tip: Send these spring wedding centerpieces home with your bridesmaids. They will last for so long!

To Make These Spring Wedding Centerpieces You Will Need:

Rustic or Vintage Pans

Grass or Sod

Flower Plastic Bud Holders

Daisies

Scissors

To get started you will need some old casserole dishes, sheet pans, or other low shallow dish that has a vintage look. You can really use any container you want, but it makes a nice "field" for the daises if you use a shallow pan.

Next you will need plastic floral bud tubes. The kinds you can slip a single stalk into. You can also use small glass bottles or even tiny plastic bottles.

Go ahead and lay a layer of gravel or sand on the bottom of the shallow pan being used for the DIY spring wedding centerpiece if you have it.

Now, top off with a layer of sod. You can buy small squares of sod from the local nursery for so cheap, way less than a floral arrangement.

Now, take a wood dowel, butter knife, or magic marker and start punching holes in the top of the sod. You want to make the holes for the plastic flower tubes to be set into.

Fill each flute with water. Now, press them into the shallow pan of grass, where you made each holes.

Now, put one daisy in each tube!

Tips: Try adding some plastic Easter bunnies to turn this spring centerpiece into an Easter Bunny centerpiece of the dinner table.

You can also use any flower you want. To create a romantic Valentine's Day centerpiece tries using all red and pink Gerber daisies.

Finally, you can easy make this whole spring centerpiece sing fake flowers and such so that it will last forever.

You still need one shallow pan. Place a sheet of Styrofoam inside. You want this to be about as deep as your shallow pan, but about one inch down form the rim.

Now, top off with a layer of fake grass. This can be bought in rolls at the hardware store. You can even cut up an old doormat. Punch holes in top and into the Styrofoam using a needle tool.
