Easy Succulent Centerpiece Table Decoration
Create a beautiful and low-maintenance centerpiece for your table with this easy DIY faux succulent decoration. Perfect for adding a touch of greenery to any space without the need for watering or maintenance.
Hello! I'm so happy that you decided to check out this easy succulent decoration project.
I was inspired to create this centerpiece after my sister mentioned she was looking at purchasing a succulent wax burner. So my design does not include a wax burner, but if you stick around I'll tell you how you can create your very own succulent centerpiece table decoration.
Materials Needed
❤ Artificial Succulents and a flower
For my design, I used 4 succulent plants
I purchased my artificial succulents from my local Walmart
(Make sure to check your local dollar store as well)
❤ A wooden bowl
I purchased my wooden bowl at Walmart.
You can actually find any container of your choice at your local craft store
❤ A package of craft rocks
My rocks were purchased at Walmart, but you can try shopping at your local dollar store, or craft store.
❤ Assorted green glass rocks
I purchased these at my local Dollar Tree
❤ One battery-operated candle
Optional
Glue- this is for gluing down a middle piece to hold your candle. I'll explain more about this later
A pot- I used a plastic pot from when I purchased my pepper plant.
Spray paint- this is only used if you are using a middle piece for your candle
Creating your succulent decor
Start off with positioning where you would like your candle to go inside your bowl.
I placed my candle in the middle of the bowl. Once you have done this step, take your candle, and place it inside your pot. (I used a plastic pot and applied glue over the bottom section. This will allow you to glue the pot to the bottom of your bowl, and this will make an easy insert for your candle.)
I did this step because I did not want rocks to slide every time I took my candle out to turn it off and on. Using this pot for your candle to be inserted will eliminate rocks from filling the center of your bowl. It creates a barrier around your candle.
Once you have made sure that your candle will fit inside your pot, take some spray paint and paint your pot. (This step will also depend on which pot you are using.)
If you already have a pot with a color you would like, simply skip the spray paint step.
After spray painting your pot, add it to your bowl. If you are using a pot that has some weight to it, you can skip the glue step. Once you have added your bowl inside your pot, add in your rocks. Make sure to fill your rocks up to the top part of your pot.
Insert your candle, and add in a few of your glass rocks. Take your succulents, and arrange them around your candle. Take your succulents and poke them through the rocks. I added a few white flowers around my succulents. I thought this helped to bring a little more softness to my centerpiece.
You're all done! It really is a simple DIY project, and it looks absolutely beautiful. You can add this to any room in your home. The cost for this project was around $25. I'm sure you can come in at a lower price if you find your items discounted.
I hope you have enjoyed this simple DIY project! If you end up making this, please let me know! I'd love to hear how your centerpiece turns out!

ReplyDeleteDee,
Deletethank you so much! I love how it turned out as well. And thank you for pinning. :)
What an attractive project! Succulents have long been a favorite. Thanks for sharing with us at Creatively Crafty #ccbg :)
ReplyDeleteLydia,
Deletethank you so much! I love succulents too. I've always thought that they are so pretty when they are displayed. :)
This looks gorgeous! Unlike the rest of my family, I've always been a fan of succulents, so I would love to make something like this.
ReplyDeleteKat, thank you so much! I love succulents as well, and I think there are so many ways to add decorate with them, and add them to your home decor. :)
DeleteThat's really pretty and I love how easily it can be customized to different styles. My office is all black, red and white, and I bet a black pot and opting for the reddish tone succulents would make this a great option for the accent table in there. I'm going to have to give it a try! The table looks so bare right now... it needs something lol
ReplyDeleteBritt, thank you!! You're so right, you could definitely customize this, and make it into any style you would like. I love having options like that, and I think that is why I love creating things. Go for it, and make one for your table! =)
Deletehow cute is that! lovely idea. I like the way succulents look and like this it gives even better impression. looks very fancy!
ReplyDeleteLyosha, thank you so much for your kind words. :)
DeleteI saw something like this at the upscale plant shop down the street from me. I want to get one for a house-warming gift next week and now I think I can whip one up myself!
ReplyDeleteDebra, yes create one! You will just love it. :)
DeleteTotally off topic here, but I'm pretty sure we have the exact same area rug. Lol. You have good taste! I love how simple this project is to create, and how customizable it is as well. With being able to use any bowl or even colored glass beads, it can be made to fit a certain style or room, and be beautiful. These would make wonderful homemade gifts too.
ReplyDeleteErica, how cool! I love that was have the same area rug. I couldn't pass it up, it was on sale, and it looks great. Thank you so much for your kind words. I really enjoyed creating this craft. It was simple, and fun to put together. :)
DeleteCONGRATS! Your post is FEATURED at my Unlimited Link Party 26!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!
DeleteThat's lovely, having the pot for the candle sunk right down in the rocks makes it really secure and balances it all nicely somehow.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes, I tried it without using the pot, and of course all of the rocks started to sink down. I figured in order to be able to switch on my LED candle without the rocks sinking in, I would have to add in a pot. It worked out great in the end. Thank you so much for stopping by.
DeleteBig impact, but so simple. Love it! These are my favorite kind of projects. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!
DeleteThis just looks so peaceful! I love it. I'm visiting from the Love Your Creativity linkup. :)
ReplyDeleteJennifer, thank you. I appreciate you visiting. Happy to hear you enjoyed this.
DeleteThis is lovely. Even living in the desert, we have some faux succulents as decor in the house because let's just say if plants survive it's by accident. Featuring when my link party opens!
ReplyDeleteI miss desert living and I’m trying to convince my husband to move back to Arizona. Faux succulents are a great way to decorate and I love using them. Thank you for visiting and for adding my succulent centerpiece to your list of features
DeleteSo cute Stephanie 😀
ReplyDeleteVisiting from Esme's today.
Blessings, Jennifer
