A natural centerpiece for our summer tables. Quick and easy to make, this centerpiece can awaken the senses. Take care not to take a bite out of the apples which make it up!

Supplies

Tools

A round container approximately 10 cm (4 inches) in diameter (in this case, a metal pot)
Several skewers
Mini-test tubes for the orchids
Floral foam: Humidified, it improves the durability and freshness of the centerpiece and easily holds the elements in place

Materials

Small decorative apples
Round leaves, Galax or Ivy
Red coleus leaves
Natural Moss
Orchid flowers

Directions

Cut the floral foam so that it fits into our container.
Place the Galax leaves around the pot by slotting them between the foam and the container creating a 1st collar.
Prick the apples into the foam creating a 2nd collar.
Prick several coleus leaves creating a 3rd collar.
Place the test-tubes at the center of the composition and fill them with water.
Prick in some apples once again.
