I need crafty help!

28 Sep

My kitchen table is driving me crazy. I love all of the elements, but I just can’t arrange them in a way that I’m happy with.

My problem is that once I arrange things one way, I get “stuck” and can’t see it any other way. Does that ever happen to you? Right now I’m stuck between this…

1.

And this…

2.

It’s okay, but just “blah”. So tonight I played around with a few different arrangements. Warning – LOTS of pictures of pretty much the same thing.

5.

6.

7.

8.

9.

10.

11.

See what I mean? (I don’t know why #4 isn’t showing up – I’m just having all kinds of issues today! It’s pretty much the same as #3, except the candy corns are laying down.)

So now I am shamelessly begging for HELP! What would you do with the elements that I have? I also have other vases, candlesticks, bowls, platters, plates, etc, etc.

I kind of like #11, but is it not cohesive enough? Ugh, I think now I’m at the point where I can’t see the forest for the trees! And so, I am turning it over to you. :)

    i really like #10, but what I think would pull it all together is if you made a skinny table runner to go down the center and make your cute items the true centerpiece!!

      Thanks so much! I’ve heard the table runner suggestion from a few people, so I think I’m going to try that. :)
