"Center of Attraction"

Often one of the most overlooked aspects of decorating is the dining table.  If not formal, it's the place where we gather day in and day out for meal after meal and the center of the table can often go overlooked.  To deny your dining table a centerpiece is a huge missed opportunity.  But most of us struggle when it comes to identifying the best way to decorate our daily dining space and often neglect the formal one, figuring that selecting the right centerpiece is just too complicated.  I've gathered a few great examples to hopefully inspire you. 

Here are three tips to keep in mind:

• Keep it simple.  Your centerpiece doesn't need to be huge and elaborate and screaming 1980.

• Often the best and most creative centerpieces are created with items you already have.

Why not corral your wine corks or those shells from last summer's beach vacation to create a unique centerpiece or tablescape perfect for everyday. 

• We know how much I love fresh flowers.  Why not turn your fresh flowers into a beautiful dried arrangement?  Hydrangeas work really well.
