Earthy Spring Centerpiece

A beautiful, earthy centerpiece for your spring or summer table settings! Love the use of old tin cans! This quick DIY would take less than 10 minutes!

I’ve come to adore the concept of texture in home decor. It’s something I never even thought about before I was a blogger, but usually, when a room really speaks to me. It’s because it’s full of texture – especially raw textures like metal, wood, and concrete. The more I learn about my personal style, the more I find myself putting these natural textures into my home, and this centerpiece is a prime example! I could’ve made a centerpiece with anything, but I decided to use old tin cans, lol.

Here’s what you need for this project:

Tin cans
Black adhesive vinyl
White candlesticks
Moss (similar)
Platinum 6 Machine
Lowercase etched dies

Start by pulling out your lowercase etched dies and setting up the letters for “spring” on some black vinyl. Roll it through the platinum 6 machine, and your letters will be cut out and ready to go.

Evenly space the letters and stick them onto the tin can.

I had three tiny candlestick holders that fit inside my tin cans – if you don’t have any, a thrift store is a GREAT place to find some! I slid those inside, stuck the candles in, and then covered the top with moss. I promise this whole project was done in only 5 minutes!

You can easily substitute the letters for any occasion – “summer”, “birthday”, “Easter”. I love a versatile DIY. I used this in my most recent Spring tablescape, which I’ll be sharing on the blog tomorrow.

Love the look of the bare cans against the bright green moss - you could totally reuse them for different words/seasons too :)

Cute idea! I just love my die machine. It's so much easier than pulling out the silhouette sometimes. Pinning.
