Great Way to Use CinderBlocks???

I love this idea. Just love it. I was on yes,please and just fell in love with this awesome design. I really love how people are mixing hard textures with nature into their centerpieces. Enjoy!

Yes, Please writes:



First, using acrylic paint I painted each cinder block with the corresponding table number. It helps to trace an outline of the number in pencil first. If you’re unsure of your painting skills you can find stencils to use as a guide for your numbers. To create the arrangement, you’ll need a glass container that fits snuggly inside the center and a couple small pin frogs, or one big one. Simply place the glass container inside the middle of the cinder block. Affix the pin frogs and add water. Arrange your flowers with rustic flair and you’ve got yourself a centerpiece.


Don’t you just love how the rough cinder block plays against the delicate nature of these flowers? Gorgeous.
