Centerpiece for a golf themed 40th Birthday.
A flag marks everyone's favorite hole...
19!
(flags are available in my Etsy Store!)
**A few notes on making these centerpieces**
I bought the fish bowls at Michaels and used the smaller of the two sizes they have.
The tulips and flags were placed in an other vase in the middle of the fishbowl
(I actually used a drinking glass)
The flag dowels were taped to the inside of that glass to make it stable, then flowers and water put in.
It takes a lot of balls the fill the bowl, approx 30.
(you can get inexpensive plastic golf balls at Target and mix them in with real golf balls)
A potted flowering plant also looks great inside the fishbowl and
the dowel is easily just placed into the dirt.

ReplyDeleteHi Kat,
DeleteThat email address didn't work...I made the flags out of thick card stock
What size bubble bowl vase did you use and how many golf balls were used?
ReplyDeleteI got the bowls at Michaels and it was the smaller of the two sizes they have...It took a lot of golf balls, approx 30. You can use regular golf balls or Target has more inexpensive plastic ones that are good to mix in with the real balls.
