Instead of reaching for your typical glass vase for your next summer gathering, go for the fruit! These hollowed out fruits make adorable vases for summer centerpieces.
Unique Summer Centerpieces
Depending on your setting you can choose smaller citrus fruits for mini vases or go big and choose melons for a larger centerpiece. You can use flowers from your garden or pick up a bouquet at your local grocery store. Personally, I love Costco and Trader Joe’s for fresh flowers at reasonable prices.
Citrus Vases
Orange and pink are one of my favorite color combinations so I was immediately drawn to this photo. These orange vases are ideal for lower centerpieces and would look great lined up on an outdoor table.
These lemons are so creatively displayed on receipt holders.
Pineapple Vase
The flowers selected for this arrangement are the perfect choice for this hollowed out pineapple vase.
Melons
Melons make a larger statement centerpiece. I love the whimsical feel, don’t you?
Apple Vases
Apples aren’t just for fall. I love the green apples for summer decor – especially against white dishes.
Additional Inspiration
One of the early posts that I wrote for 1010 Park Place was an inspiration piece on how to incorporate fruits and vegetables into your summer centerpieces. It’s one of my favorite posts.
