Centerpieces — Fresh from the Garden
A centerpiece doesn't get any easier. Corn, roses, and a container — that's all you need for this display.
- Soak fresh, frozen, or canned corn in cool water about ten minutes to eliminate excess starch. Drain and rinse.
- Fill a glass container with corn, red cherry tomatoes, or both.
- Fill the container with water.
- Insert freshly cut blooms. (Remove all foliage from flowers and cut stems long enough so that buds are about 1/2 inch above container/water.)
