Which one do you think looks better? *Table Centre Flash*

Tracey86, 2 October, 2012 at 10:56 Posted on Planning 0 16

So I'm just in the process of adding the water bead balls to our centrepieces, I've done one filled to the top and one filled halfway and I can't decide which I think looks better. You can still see the flower stems even with the beads all the way to the top so I don't think that influences the decision either way and I can't make up my mind which I prefer.

What do you think?

    Thank you, it's funny that the simple decisions are the ones I agonise over, very silly really!

    Thank you CharleeA Smiley smile

    Ok being awkward as usual but I think they would look better minus the beads, I think the flowers would 'pop' more as a centrepiece particularly against white linen....but if your loving the beads I would go with the full option.

    I actually prefer the less full version but do like both.

    I agree about half full (or even less), not just because it will be cheaper if you use less but because it makes the flowers stand out more. Either way looks beautiful though and my initial thought was that the full one looked better but my mind changed the longer I looked at it. But if it was mine, I'd go half ?

    I think it might be nice to try and just fill the bottoms of them with the beads, so you can see the stems and it's kind of 'balanced', lots of purple at the bottom, lots of purple at the top. How does that look?

    I have to agree that I think they would look better with no beads, or just a few at the bottom. I think it will make the actual flowers stand out a lot more!

    Thanks for all the replies- I'm still not sure! I've emailed the piccy to OH and asked him to let me know what he thinks when he's on his lunch break at work so hopefully he will have a strong opinion and then we can go with his preference thus taking the pressure off me making the final decision- cop out!!

    Thank you for your opinions everybody and for the compliments on the centrepieces too.

    I'd have to say I'd opt for no beads (or clear ones) so colour of flowers stands out, but of the two pictures, I prefer the full one
