CPC's 25th Anniversary

Last night my church celebrated it's 25th anniversary at the Hilton. It was a fun night with former pastors back for a visit, delicious food, and a glorious cake by Little Sister Cakes. I was asked to do the decorations for the tables, stage, and cake table. They wanted something simple and elegant. What better colors for a silver anniversary than silver, white, and green. I also used a lot of natural elements.


One of the table decorations was a wooden candlestick spray-painted silver with a globe of baby's breath.




A second table decoration was simply a vase of branches spray-painted silver with rice to anchor. Silver painted leaves were also in the vase.





A third table decoration was a simple cylinder of pine cones with battery operated white lights. (Not the greatest picture and I evidently only took one.)



There were three reserved tables that had simple arrangements of blush roses, baby's breath, and greenery.



For the stage I used two large tulip shaped glass vases that had curly willow spray-painted silver with cream roses, bells of ireland, and baby's breath.



For the cake table I used grape vine that I found in the woods behind my home that was sporadically spray-painted with silver. I strategically placed silver leaves and pine cones to appear to grow out of the vine.
