I was asked to come up with an inexpensive idea for our ladies night workshop. I chose to do a table centerpiece "top hat". I did not invent the idea, I saw something similar on the net. (Just love the net) Everyone went home with their own creation. I used a charger, and a coffee can, sprayed them both black. Made the arrangement using my glue gun and added a bow. It took us 45 minutes. Lots of fun.

That's right. Everyone project turned out different and beautiful. Even our most senior lady (92 yrs old) did a terrific job. For some, using the glue gun was their first time.

Save those coffee cans. This charger was a plastic charger I bought at the dollar store.

I love hats. Lilylin suggested the same idea for wedding decoration. Can you imagine a his and hers all beautifully done in the wedding colours? Of course they would have to be much, much nicer than this one.

Very impressive for low cost. Would be cute all around a big room full of tables, especially if there were some variation from table to table. Reminds me of my former church in Texas, which had a closet (a long hallway with shelves) with about 15 table centerpieces, 48 of each one. It was a super resource. You could just slightly redo something done before! Or add a new bit to it.
