WAGI: Summer Centerpiece

Ideas so clever that we can't help but say, "What a Great Idea!"

 

Summer Centerpiece
Brighten an outdoor table with a tray of fresh blossoms or candles.

1. Use a handsaw to cut a 2 x 4 x 6 deck railing to your desired length; ours is 19 inches long. (The railing piece comes with precut grooves.) Sand the cut edges smooth.

2. Apply primer (#164759) and paint on all sides; allow each coat to dry. We used Valspar Signature Colors, Creative Ideas for Color, Wild Grape CI 212, semi-gloss.

3. Position the railing with the flat side down. Place glass containers filled with flowers or candle votives in the grooves.

 

Looking for glass containers to fit the precut grooves? We found several in-store at Walmart and plenty online! Here are some options:

Our Lowe's carries the Autorail, but the Model# is HR248T15N instead of HR246T15N. I think it's because it comes in an 8' length instead of 6'. The Item # is 152654. Good Luck.
