An Easy to Craft Centerpiece

Follow these simple steps for creating a beautiful centerpiece perfect for your deck or patio table.

Supplies Needed

For this project you will need: A plastic paint tray or any tray which can be used outside/spray paint in your color of choice/ small gourd or pumpkins/ craft moss and plants which can withstand cooler temperatures. Plants seen here are: (1) Japanese stonecrop groundcover (2) ornamental kale (3) sempervivum (also known as hens and chicks) mounding perennial (4) ornamental cabbage.

Step 1: Begin With the Proper Foundation

A simple plastic paint tray is the perfect base for an outdoor centerpiece.

Step 2: Ensure the Proper Drainage

Using a hammer and a screwdriver, make small holes in the bottom of the tray to provide proper drainage when watering. 

Step 3: Paint Your Tray

Give the tray a coat of spray paint in the color of your choice. A metallic bronze color was used here.

Step 4: Assemble Centerpiece

Place plants inside the tray, making sure to loosen the roots as you do. Fill any gaps with decorative moss.

Step 5: Add a Touch of Autumn

Nestle gourds and pumpkins among the plants in the centerpiece for added color and texture.
