Artichoke Placecard Holders- DIY

We have a gorgeous table scape for you today that you can recreate yourself! The DIY projects here are so simple to recreate and will give your table the wow you are looking for.  Line the center of the table with simple low vases filled with paper whites, or any flower that goes with your theme.
To give inexpensive glass candlesticks the look of silvery ones, apply a few coats of spray paint. Tuck the candle sticks in between the vases through the center of the table. 
 
If coordinating vases are not available, wrap clay pots with pieces of glossy gift wrap. Tie the paper in place with silver ribbon or cording. Coordinate your candlesticks with the color of your vases, the color will be the punch your table needs.
The place card holders on this table are actually artichokes spray painted silver! Grab an artichoke for each place setting on your table, paint it white, silver or a coordinating color. Cut the stem so they will stand up on the table and insert your place cards! It is that simple to create a modern, unique place setting.
