EASY CENTERPIECE MAKING HOW TO + A GOOD TIME
Creating a holiday day table that's practical, easy-to-make, and pretty is honestly a signature around here. Right? So, when Pottery Barn asked me to collaborate on an end-of-fall party I wanted to be honest. You don't have to splurge on cut florals! In this case I chose to use house plants (real and faux) because they add instant color and texture to your Thanksgiving table. Plus, botanicals bring in a beautiful natural element that pulls the colors of Autumn indoors.
Whitewood Events style is something to be admired so I invited Whitney and Kim Brannigan Photography along to help me cohesively bring it all together. You know we had a signature drink to make it easier. If you'd like the recipe, here it is!
Head over to Pottery Barn's blog to check out my Thanksgiving 101: Wood Platter Centerpiece With Whitewood Events. A quick take on it is below. What are your thoughts? Do you put real or fake plants on your table? Let me know in the comments below.
Until next time,

SUPPLIES
- Wood Container: we chose the Vintage Wood Oval Platter
- Ferns: Two live ferns in small pots – here we used Rabbit Foot Fern, but any will do.
- One Faux Plant: We choose the Maidenhair Fern but faux succulents would work as well.
- Moss
STEPS
Step 1: Take real plants out of plastic containers. Place on wood platter.
Step 2: Place faux plant in the middle of the two real ones.
Step 4: Place on table. Viola!
