The perfect setting for an afternoon tea party

Here’s an easy, breezy table centerpiece using odds and ends from a collection of stemware and glasses.

Turn them upside down and make them into footed plates for petit fours.

Use them right side up for pretty flower vases.

Or, group them together for a visual feast that’s très chic!

Tip: A grouping of footed platters can be used as a centerpiece for cupcakes for your afternoon tea party. Other glasses can be used as flower vases, and if you’re hosting a dinner party, an inverted wine glass or champagne flute can be used as a candle holder.
