DIY Table Decor

Our favorite tabletops are simple, beautiful, elegant, and of course, a bit creative. We love to repurpose and we love to DIY. Here are some of our favorite DIY ideas from around the web.


From Casa Sugar.
Wine glasses, votive candles, vellum paper, scissors. Snap.

Vintage Tins & Free Lables
From I DIY
Soup, Tomato, & Vegetable cans, labels removed. Replaced with vintage labels from this amazing flickr set.

Wine Bottle Torches
 From Design Sponge
A wine bottle, torch wick and some fuel and presto! Even if you aren't having an event, these torches are great for your outdoor space!

Wine Bottle Vases
From Citified.
Wine bottles, candles, Beautiful!

Also try Flea Market & Yard Sale Finds
Spring is the time to pound the pavement. Hit the yard sales, flea markets, and thrift stores in search for unique pieces that can be used in a variety of ways.Teapots, mason jars, glass vases, even old ashtrays can be repurposed into something beautiful!

Remember, variety is the key. Make sure you get different sizes, textures, and colors. We like them to hold flowers, candles, flatware, dipping sauces or just by themselves!

or if you can't find unique looking pieces...make 'em! With this tutorial:
Erica's Faux Porcelain
From Design Sponge.
So cool!


Vintage Book  Table Numbers
By Bird and Banner on Once Wed
You can always find old looking books in thrift stores. A really cool cost conscious craft!

A little bit of thought, a lot of time and a couple of supplies and you can mold your own dream night!
