An usual but stunning idea for you wedding are paper wedding centerpieces. Paper can be used in many forms to create a variety of unusual and unique range of table decorations to astound and amuse your guests. Think of the effect a simple napkin beautifully folded can have on the table setting, take this simple idea a step further and you can introduce a range of innovative paper designs.
For a green wedding this idea could use totally recycled materials ensuring you have the best wedding centerpieces that say what you feel about the planet and its resources. A simple paper flower in a bright color, popped into a paper vase could be a simple wedding centerpiece, or really go to town and create a whole bouquet of paper flowers to adorn your tables Think about using corrugated cardboard tubes with the corrugated side on display on the outside and simply pop in some hand made flowers. The flowers could also be in corrugated card using both the flat and bumpy sides to form different effects.
Make individual flowers with wire stems, the stems then can be pushed into a potato or a small bag of damp sand, or play dough and covered with paper of your choice to form vases. The addition of brightly colored, perhaps silver or gold paper streamers tumbling down in lovely curls make a highly effective cheap home made bright interesting display. Think about an elaborately wrapped present and use this idea on the vase base. You could also use paper covered glasses, plastic pots, or Paper-Mache using paint, pens or colored paper to give a professional hand finished look. Consider using eco paints for the little details you may need, perhaps to add veins to the paper foliage or shading on the flower petals.
