| Inventions: Watermelon Floral Centerpiece |
Watermelon Floral Centerpiece
Materials:
watermelon
knife
flowers (your choice--roses, sunflowers and lilies were used for this project)
foliage (your choice, but once again--think big leaves)
Steps:
Slice the bottom of the watermelon so it can rest squarely on the plate.
Insert the flowers and foliage. Be sure to layer according to size from front to back.
Notes:
If a watermelon isn't handy, a fun substitute is a hollowed-out gourd. Simply fill it with flowers and foliage of your choice.
Complement the centerpieces with a spring-inspired tablecloth--for example, one with a floral, fruit or vegetable design. Bright colors are a must.
Provide shade by using large table umbrellas or a picnic tent, which is created by draping a plain canvas tarp with colorful springtime fabric.
Colorful cups and napkins are a must as well. Nancy Easterling, a caterer, says that 60 percent of any guest's experience is visual. "Keep the selection of (serving) platters different. It adds texture to the table. It adds a little bit of design," she says.
