Table Decor And Centerpieces

Decorate the table for a galentine party or an intimate lunch or dinner using modern touches: geometry, black and white color scheme, metallic touches. Add colored candles: red and pink ones, or gorgeous floral centerpieces in these colors, try ombre floral centerpieces. Don’t want any traditional colors like red and pink? Use XO letters instead and keep the color scheme minimalist. Make a creative piece of potted greenery in red planters and wire heats, or an envelope-shaped box with bold blooms, or a creamy jug with branches and hearts on them. Go for customized napkins with XO prints and cute napkin rings.
