To create your decorative centerpiece, start by gluing the 6-inch round doily to the bottom of the grapevine wreath. Then, place a piece of oasis foam or Styrofoam in the center of the wreath and secure it with glue (as shown in Figure A).
Next, take the 12-inch round doily and fold it in half. Fold it loosely again to create a fan shape (see Figure B). Using floral pins, attach the fan to the center of the foam block.
To cover the foam, pin Spanish moss around it until it’s completely hidden. Finally, arrange flowers on both sides of the fan for a balanced and elegant look (as shown in Figure D).
