Dazzle your weddings guests with a citrus and floral filled centerpiece that is sure to bring a gold-gilded wow factor to your table. We created this centerpiece for our recent Grapefruit Inspired Weddingand can't wait to show you how simple it is to make this lovely DIY!
Preheat oven to 200°. Cut two fresh grapefruits into thin slices. Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 2-3 hours or until fully dried.
Paint a blue plastic serving bowl with copper spray paint. Set aside and allow to dry.
Take the dried grapefruit slices and add a thin layer of Mod Podge® and then place small pieces of gold foil onto the Mod Podge®. Brush away any excess foil with a dry paintbrush.
Begin placing the gilded slices of grapefruit around the interior of the clear salad bowl. Use small drops of hot glue to secure if necessary.
Place the copper-painted serving bowl into the clear salad bowl.
Remove the mercury bowl from the rose gold pedestal dish by loosening the screw within the bowl. Then adhere the grapefruit centerpiece bowl onto the pedestal with hot glue.
Fill the bowl with faux or fresh greenery, flowers from the blush floral bouquet, along with some cream roses and fresh grapefruit halves and your centerpiece is complete!
