How to Decorate With Silk Flower Petals

Silk flower petals make elegant addition to party table décor. Silk petals come in a wide variety of colors, such as red, yellow, pink, white, lavender and blue, so you'll have no problem finding a hue to match the celebration décor scheme. Use the petals, along with other décor items, such as candles and eye-catching vessels, to create a charming tablescape for holiday parties, wedding receptions and anniversaries or birthday bashes.

Instructions

- 1
  Cover a party table with a linen tablecloth to set the stage for décor. Choose a light-colored cloth, such as white, if you plan on using dark silk petals, so the floral pieces are noticeable.
- 2
  Scatter silk rose petals down the center of the table, covering the entire length. Use deep red or blush pink petals to create a soft, romantic look. Create a spring- or summer-inspired table with lemon yellow or lavender-hued petals.
- 3
  Place white candles in small clear glass votive holders. Make sure you have enough to cover the length of the table.
- 4
  Nestle the candle holders into the silk petals. Create a straight line down the center of the table or arrange them in a zig-zag fashion as a creative touch. Be sure the candle holders are higher that the silk petals to avoid creating a fire hazard.
