Prepare Elements

- This wood & candle centerpiece is simple to assemble with the same layout for the front and back.
- First, we need to drill taper candle holes into the top of each log of the 3-tier tealight candle holders.
- Clamp each log of the candleholder before drilling to hold in place.
- Use the 7/8" bit or spade to drill a socket into the top of each birch log about 3/4" to 1" deep.
- If you plan to use open flames, apply fire retardant spray to the wood & floral elements.
- Most fire retardant sprays are odorless & colorless when dry.
- Separate sprays are available for wood and artificial plants.
Lay Foundation

- To create a visually striking contrast that draws the eye, we used a green runner on a brown tablecover for a vibrant yet earthy foundation,
- The rich, green hue of the runner evokes the lushness of a forest floor.
- And, the brown tablecover beneath it mimics the warmth and texture of natural earth.
Assemble Tiers

- Birch wood, with its distinctive white bark and rugged texture, serves as a natural platform.
- Layer the birch wood elements in 4 tiers as shown using:
- 18 x 3-4" birch wood slices
- 6 x 5-6" birch wood slices
- 4 x 7-8" birch wood slices
- 4 x 5-tealight birch wood logs
- 2 x 3-tier tealight birch candle holders
- If you are assembling off-site, you may want to hot-glue some sections together.
Set the Scene

- This centerpiece is well-suited for rectangular tables, but may also be set as a stand-alone focal point.
- Complete the scene with the harvest corn candles, fall floral sprays, wood mushrooms, and pine cone candles.
- We also added a few real pine cones and artificial fall leaves to fill the space beyond the centerpiece.
Guest Experience

- Mimic the harvest corn candles with rolled gold dinner napkins.
- As a final touch, add a festive flicker of magic with metallic gold bead necklaces as napkin rings.
Side View

- This centerpiece is designed to look the same from the front and reverse sides.
- However, every seat on each side of the table offers a new perspective on its design & elements.
It’s all about making others feel special...putting forth the extra effort turns the ordinary into extraordinary.
