Rhythm & Resonance Musical Tablescape

Set the stage for an evening that will leave your guests humming with delight long after the last note has faded.

For maestros and music lovers alike, this table scene is a creative celebration of the power of music for weddings, fundraisers, and the holiday season.

A towering black treble clef centerpiece, with its elegant, curving design, creates a striking visual focal point, symbolizing the music theme in a clean, modern way.

Detailed miniature musical instruments at each place setting offer decorative charm and a whimsical touch to spark conversation and enhance the theme.

Vinyl records as placemats infuse the table with a nostalgic, retro vibe, integrating the musical theme through both visual and tactile elements.

• To create this tribute to the world of music, start with the centerpiece.
• Set upon a 13" circular mirror base, the elevated platform is supported by 4 matching taper candle holders, 11" tall.
• Taper candle holders make great centerpiece supports because they are...
• Available in a variety of matching styles & sizes,
• Typically have a weighted base,
• Always include a 7/8" opening in the top.
• We used minimalist-styled 11-inch silver metal candlesticks.
• For stability, construct a simple wooden frame from a 3/8" square dowel to fit into the four candlesticks.

• Two 3/8" square dowels fit vertically in the 7/8" candlestick opening, perfectly.
• To construct a 6.25" x 6.25" square frame, cut a 36-inch dowel into 12 sections:
• 8 pegs to fit candlestick openings, 1-1/8" or less
• 2 sides @ 5-1/2 inches
• 2 sides @ 6 inches
• Candle holder opening depths can vary, so be sure to measure them before cutting pegs.
• The easiest way is to insert two sections of the 3/8" dowel into the opening and mark with a pencil, then add 1/4 inch for the cut.
• Glue a peg (vertical) to the end of each side (horizontal) section.
• Ensure that the top of the peg & side sections are flush along the top.

• When dry, test fit, then glue the 4 sides together.
• This will keep the candlesticks aligned and fixed in position to prevent shifting.

• For the mirror base:
• Hide the laurel leaf string lights battery case in plain sight by painting it glossy black as a base for the harp.
• Wrap the string lights around the candlestick supports.
• Optionally, anchor the candlesticks with museum putty.
• For the elevated platform:
• Paint the wooden frame glossy black.
• Glue two vinyl records together for extra strength.
• Then, glue or Velcro the frame to the center of the double-record.

• Secure harp on the black battery case with Velcro.
• Use museum putty or Velcro to hold treble clef centerpiece in place on platform.

• Personalize the experience with different musical instruments & place cards for each guest.
• Start with vintage vinyl records as fun place settings.
• Contrast the black musical instrument bases with musical orchestra score beverage napkins in the center of each record.
• Alternate cathedral radio & gramophone place card holders.
• Print name cards with musical score borders & music themed fonts.
• Dress each place setting for the occasion with black bow-tie-folded napkins & pearl bead necklaces as napkin rings.

Add excitement and transform any event into a standout occasion with unique and thoughtful details.
