Ceiling medallions transform into easy-to-make holiday centerpiece ideas.
I’ve been experimenting with ways to use ceiling medallions as wreaths, which has led me to the other holiday favorite: holiday centerpiece ideas.
A ceiling medallion actually makes a perfect base for a centerpiece. With the center cut-out, a battery-operated candle fits perfectly inside. Painted or not, there are as many options to personalize a medallion as there are paint colors available at Sherwin-Williams.
I have a round table in my dining room, which is perfect for one medallion. But, for big holiday get-togethers, a series of medallions down a long table would add drama and elegance without taking a lot of time or money to create.
For my first attempts at making medallion centerpieces, I chose to pair a Fypon ceiling medallions with painted pine cones. Pine cones are such a plentiful autumnal element in our backyard and are perfect for Thanksgiving table decor. When they are painted, those pine cones are dressed up for a modern take on a classic rustic element.
