Here is what you'll need: SUPPLIES: - Box/Vase/Cart to use as Centerpiece Base -Floral Foam (Found at the Dollar Store) -Paper Shred(Found at the Dollar Store) -Skewers -Paint -Foam Brush -Scrapbook Paper -Hot Glue -Embellishments INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Begin by picking out your Centerpiece box. I just bought one for a buck at my local grocery store and painted it red.
