This is a time of bounty, so you’ll have a vast variety of colors to choose from. Search out the deep, rich color tones of berries, grapes, plums, pomegranates, apples, pears and artichokes to use in your bouquet.

Compliment your fruits with flowers and leaves in multiple textures.

Grab some greenery too.  You can go fragrant with some seeded eucalyptus or some herbs. Olive branches are great for a dusty green touch and can add height.

Carolyne-RoehmTIPS & TRICKS: When creating a centerpiece arrangement for a dining table keep in mind not to block the view of the person sitting across the table.  Table arrangements should be below eye level so they can be enjoyed as much as the company of your guests.
Happy Creating!
