To create a vibrant and colorful look, a table is covered with different sizes of glasses filled with colorful sports drinks (food coloring stains glass). Add colored glass plates and use large glass marbles as the finishing touch on top of napkins wrapped simply in ribbon.

Plain glass cylinders lined with paper, covered with stickers and topped with an oasis cage create funky vases for masses of carnations. Feathers tied together with wire top each arrangement for a whimsical touch.

Pin wide ribbon around the base of several sheets of wheatgrass (available at health food stores) and tuck flowers inside water tubes in to create a garden-themed tabletop.
