Replicate the Look - Blue Mason Jars and Lanterns


Remember the lovely fairytale wedding in Battle Creek, Michigan?  Well, we just love the centerpieces that the bride selected.  She layered blue mason jars, lanterns, and stacks of vintage books on top of rustic tree stumps.  For a personalized touch, she splashed coffee beans and mini bells along the burlap runners.

So you might be wondering, "How do I replicate the look without looking like a yard sale?"  The bride pulled it off because all the details worked together.  For instance, shades of blue were used in both the vintage books and mason jars.  Twine was elegantly tied around the books and also looped around the mason jars.  By using the same detail multiple times, everything felt cohesive and well thought out rather than homemade.  I am excited to share an inspiration board if you want to replicate the look for your wedding or bridal shower.



Mini Black Lanterns - $4.20 each
Blue Mason Jars - $8.79 for 6 jars
Stacks of 3 Vintage Books - go to estate sales
Burlap Runner - $62 for 100 yards
Tree Slice Decor - $15 for 13 slices

All the details above are extremely affordable for any bride on a budget.  If there is room to splurge, don't forget plenty of mini floral arrangements and tea light candles in pretty votive glasses.  I hope this helps!
