    Fast and Easy Faux Succulent Centerpiece 

    If you're like me and have a black thumb when it comes to succulents, this fast and easy faux succulent centerpiece is for you!

    Faux Succulent Centerpiece
    So I came up with the idea for this faux succulent centerpiece because my dining room table was looking a little bare after my tulip centerpiece from my spring home tour died, and realistically I can't have fresh flowers all the time.

    When thinking of a replacement, I knew I wanted something organic. I remembered the centerpiece I posted on Instagram back in the fall using some dollar store faux succulents, and knew it would be easy to create a spring{y} version by just changing a few details.

     

    By far my favorite souvenir from our trip! I was planning on making some silhouettes of the kids myself but when I saw these at Disney, it was a no-brainer. The lady did it by hand, it was amazing to watch. ❤️

    I gathered my supplies, and in just about 10 minutes I had a lovely carefree centerpiece!

    Fast and Easy Faux Succulent Centerpiece

    Supplies:

    1. Faux Succulents  {I got mine from Dollar Tree, but you can find them in stores like Target, Hobby Lobby, Michael's, and of course online}
    2. Decorative Moss
    3. Natural elements like moss balls, dried/faux flowers, and branches
    4. A container of your choice, I used a dough bowl.

    I love how simple this centerpiece is to put together!

    ~Add natural elements like branches, moss balls, or even dried or faux flowers for added texture and color.

    That's it folks, stand back and enjoy your no fuss no muss centerpiece!

    My favorite thing about this centerpiece is that it still has a fresh organic look without having to worry about keeping it alive!

    {Did you notice my new botanical prints?! I will be sharing a post soon about ideas for inexpensive artwork}.

     

    Bonus! This centerpiece is really easy to also take apart, if you're wanting a change {as I often do}. I simply remove each element and put them in separate Ziplock bags.

    What do you all think? Would you try making this easy centerpiece?

    Thanks for stopping by, see you next time!

        Thank you Vin! You know that last pic came together organically {no pun intended}, because all the elements was added over time, I also love the look a lot. Thanks for stopping by sweetie!

        Erin, I'm the same! I love succulents but for some reason I can't seem to keep them alive! So yes this is definitely a win-win, especially since they are so inexpensive!
