    Lovely! How did you do the twine ones, just wrap it around constantly?

    I'm using a glue gun, much easier and faster

    Are you using yours as centre pieces or just dotted around the venue? I'm thinking of 5 or 6 various sizes and designs on each table but not sure whether I'll need something else too or if these will be enough of a feature on their own xx

    These will be for all along the top table.

    We have cream metal pitchers with Gypsophila for the tables.

    Aww thankyou Smiley smile

    I am thinking of putting tealights in the smaller ones and then Gypsophila in the larger ones to match the table centrepieces.

    Are these just jars you've collected from home?

    I want things exactly like this as our theme is rustic as its in a barn. I want about 5 on each table and then we are having a candelabra in the middle. Where did you get the stuff to stick on them like the hessian etc? Was it expensive?

    This is exactly what I am doing!! I'm having 5 on each table, 4 with floating candles in and a slightly larger one in the middle with gypsophila. Not started making Ming yet, probably should as I need about 100 lol.

    pwhen did you get your hessian from?? And the wooden hearts, they are lovely.

    I bought some jars from ebay but I collected a lot as well.

    There are about 100 to do.

    I bought the Hessian from hobby craft and I have just been cutting it to size. I think it was £3.99 a metre but you can probably get it cheaper on line. The lace was also from hobby craft. The string is from the pound shop - 3 for £1

    The wooden buttons were from ebay and were originally for my button trees but I didn't use them.

    I will be selling all the jars after the wedding I expect.

    They are very very cute! I love anything homemade. So much more personable and unique IMO
