5 Centerpiece Ideas Under $15

Your budget is the biggest deciding factor in choosing centerpieces for your event. Determining how much you’re actually planning to spend determines what things you can do to include personal taste in your event design—even more specifically, the tables at your event.


Whether you decide to rent or purchase the pieces for your centerpieces, you can make it cost-effective while still making every table feel like they’ve been treated with a similar touch of thoughtfulness.

Here are 5 centerpiece ideas that make a big impact on the design, but not on your wallet:


1. Candles, Candles Candles!

I love candles! Aside from scented candles, using non-scented candles for your centerpiece can bring a dream-like quality to your event. You can use candles of varying shapes and sizes, or fill up vases with water and drop in some floating candles.


2. Mason Jars

Mason jars are way more affordable than glass vases and are versatile in their style. You can paint them, dress them up with ribbons or keep it simple by adding a candle inside.


3. Fruit

A unique way to add color to your decor is to float bright fruits in large, clear-glass vases (filled to different levels) for a whimsical look. This centerpiece style works best for daytime or outdoor events.


4. Balloons

Balloons are by far the most affordable centerpieces because they come in bulk! You can literally buy 1 pack of balloons to make centerpieces for all your tables. You just need to arrange or display them in a way that works for you.


5. Photos/Picture Frames

If you're looking to add a personal touch to your event, this is the one for you! It's always nice to see how people have changed over time. Whatever it you're celebrating, I'm sure you would love to share old memories while creating new ones
