zoom » Use the holder you prefer. We used an earthenware platter.
We covered it with little pine branches and other branches with leaves streaked with white.
We put a candle in a corner.
Then we tied three cinnamon sticks with a little string and put them near the candle. As you can see in the photo and its enlargement we also arranged some dried orange slices and pieces of star anice.
The following step is to prepare some little bundles made with rose berries. You have not to cut the faded roses; their fruits come bigger and bigger, become berries and then take on different colours, from green to orange and red in the autumn. So they become very beautiful decorative elements. At this point cut them and tie together with a little string. Complete your centrepiece with these little bundles.
If you want to preserve this floral arrangement you have to insert all the green elements in the specially provided floral foam. Remember to keep it damp and don't put the composition near the heat sources.
