• Arrange the plants to determine their positions.
• Cut excess stems, leaving about 3/4" for inserting into the board.
• Cut the sea-grass & fan-coral floral stems into 2 pieces each to keep the overall height below 15".

• Measure, cut, & straighten 14-gauge wire to make supports.
• Tulle-water: Cut two 14-gauge wire supports, 18 inches or longer.
• Angelfish: Cut one 14-gauge wire support, 10 inches or longer.

• To straighten each section, secure one end of the wire in a vise.
• If you don't have a vise, you can attach the wire to a stationary object.
• Chuck the other end of the wire into a drill.
• Turn on the drill at slow or moderate speed.
• Keep tension on the wire while it is spinning.
• Spin until straight and remove.

• Sand & paint the wire supports turquoise to match the tulle-water.
• Cut the angelfish support into two 3.5-inch pieces.
• Paint the base gold, then finish with a coat of glitter gold (optional).
• Glue the 14-gauge tulle-water supports into the base.
• Ensure the supports are relatively straight and slightly wider apart at the top.
• The extra width at the top will add more slack to the tulle between supports.
• Note: If your drill holes go through the board, make sure the wire supports are recessed on the bottom to avoid damaging the table or linens.

• Cut a piece of glittered turquoise tulle to measure 24" x 60".
• Cut each 60-inch side in a zig-zag pattern, 5" wide & 12" long, to create jagged edges.
• Fold the tulle in half and drape over the supports.
• Push the supports through the center line fold with half on each side.

• Measure about 3-4" up one side of the tulle.
• Pinch together 1/2" of tulle and push the supports through.
• Repeat for the other side.
• Alternate sides until reaching the top.

• Lay the centerpiece on its side.
• Adjust tulle along supports for the desired look & height.
• Apply white glue to a few points of contact to hold it in place.
• Allow to dry.

• Install & glue plants into place.
• Arrange & glue sea shells to wood base.

• Glue one of the 3.5" wire supports into the inward-facing side of an angelfish.
• Thread the support through plants and tulle at the desired position.
• Hot glue the angelfish with the support into place on the display.
• Attach a second angelfish on the opposite side, at the other end of the support.
• Hot glue the angelfish into place.
• Repeat the process for the other angelfish pair.

• Trim off the wire water supports below the top of the tulle.
• And there you have it! Your Angelfish Coral Reef centerpiece is ready to dazzle your guests!

• Start with a runner of turquoise satin fabric down the center of a white tablecloth base.
• Lay pectin shell garlands on each side of the angelfish centerpiece.
• Add metallic sealife relief votive candleholders.
• Scatter seashells on and around the centerpice to blend the base into the scene.

• Create a mini reef scene at each place setting.
• Fold seagrass-green napkins into the shape of fan coral.
• Mirror the shimmering effect of water with turquoise bead necklaces as napkin rings.
• Finish with a bright orange sprig of coral cut from a second spray.

• Adjust as necessary for a delightful underwater scene on the reverse side
