From the Lesson Workbook
A Nasturtium Table
In this lesson I filled two big bowls with chicken wire with two bits of pot tape, crisscrossing on top. For the smaller vases, you don't want the leaves to be too big. Make sure your pot tape doesn't take up too much space. Keeping the stem clean is very important.
If you are tying ribbons, you want them to be at least 5cm wide and about a metre long.
To add a little extra sparkle, I enjoy having things to sprinkle down the table, and in this lesson, I use sweet chestnuts and crab apples.
For This Table I Use:
- Nasturtium
- Sweet chestnut
- Crab apples
- Pomegranate Bud Vase
- Stripe Linen Napkin in Green & White from Summerill & Bishop
- Stripe Linen Tablecloth in White & Green Velvet
- Ribbon from Berisfords Ribbons in Blue Note 9603
- Scalloped-Edge Dinner Plate
- Cream Tapered Dinner Candles
- Reel wire
- Mossing pins
- Pot tape
- Secateurs
- Set of Crystal Tumblers with Star Design from The Vintage List
- Hay Candle Holder (in Amber)
- Frill Glass Candle Holder from Willow and Wolf
