Spring twig wreath and candle centerpiece will be your favorite table decor for the season. Whether celebrating early spring to Easter Sunday, you will love this easy do it yourself centerpiece for your table. Curly twigs wrapped around a grapevine wreath faux pink flowers, berries and bunnies are always in style for Spring. After you make the wreath, place it on a cake stand to bring the centerpiece up off the table but low enough you can see your guests across the table. I added a single glass canister with candle to complete the look. Beside the centerpiece are two vintage bunny candle sticks that a friend gave to me.*
If you decide not to make a wreath from scratch, purchase a grapevine wreath and a pre made floral wreath, then attach the floral wreath to the grapevine with green wire or brown pipe cleaners. In addition to making a beautiful wreath with two separate wreaths, it will make the centerpiece fuller and very pretty. Also perfect for hanging on the door after the dinner.
Supplies You Will Need:
One grapevine or willow wreath and 5-7 branches of willow twigs. Brown pipe cleaners or brown floral wire for hanger ( if you plan to hang it later) faux pink and dark pink florals, moss, faux ivy sprigs, faux small berries, single birds nest with eggs and small bird, glass candle vase with white pillar candle.

*As a side note, the bunny candle sticks in the back ground were given to my friend Sharon Neuhaus, infamous water color artist, Poultry in Motion creator. She recently moved to heaven due to lung cancer, so being able to use her candle sticks always brings back great memories of our friendship. She loved bunnies too.
