A few week’s ago I share my Pastel Spring Tablescape. I think my favorite part of the whole table was my DIY Spring Handbag Centerpiece.

I thought it would be really fun to show you how to make your own.
For little, to NO cost.
To make your own DIY Spring Handbag Centerpiece, you will need:
*straw handbag
*faux flowers
*faux greenery
*a sheer scarf
*imagination
I found my straw handbag at Dillard’s last year.
And, my faux peonies are from Walmart.
I made my DIY Spring Handbag Centerpiece in just a few easy steps. With the idea that it was not a permanent piece. Then I could still use it as my Spring/Summer handbag.
I placed the faux flowers in first. Using the theory of “3s”. You can learn more about that here.
The premise is that odd numbers work best in creating a floral arrangement. For height, balance and weight.
I tucked in 3 stems of greenery between the flowers. Making sure I could still see the lovely beaded handle. (Isn’t it stunning?)
For more texture and interest, I tied a sheer scarf onto the side of the straw handbag. It is a vintage scarf from my mom. I like how the colors blend, but aren’t exact tones.
Also in the above picture, you can see that I added a stem of white hydrangeas. This gives a fuller look. As I always say, “If you like it, then it is perfect.” So, if you want the fuller style, add more.
What I like most about it, is that there isn’t another centerpiece like this anywhere. I used my imagination to create a one of a kind DIY Spring Handbag Centerpiece.
There are so many other ideas YOU can come up with, too. Maybe you already have a handbag that you would like to use, different color flowers, add some sticks or greenery from your trees. There are so many options to choose from.
I hope I have helped you a little to get your own creative juices flowing. Post a picture of YOUR own handbag centerpiece, using the hashtag #styleandmake on my Instagram page. I would love to feature you!
Thanks for stopping by and making my day brighter.

Meegan, you always come up with the most darling ideas and I love this one for using a handbag for your centrepiece. The straw bag is perfect for spring.
Thank you for sharing this DIY project at Create, Bake, Grow & Gather this week. I’m delighted to be featuring it at tomorrow’s party and pinning too!
