CELEBRATIONS: Woodland Table Numbers

If you’re planning a large gathering or a wedding, table numbers can keep things organized and add a special touch to each table. You can go all out and order elaborate floral arrangements to house your numbers, or you can diy using simple terracotta pots, moss and a cuttings from your yard.




For this centerpiece, I painted small terracotta pots with craft paint. Paint the bottom part first with white paint and once it’s dry, add the gold paint to the rim. Insert a piece of floral foam and then cover with moss. Use cuttings from fern plants and other hardy bushes from your garden. I also added a small stem that still had some small acorn caps attached.


The wood slice pick is from the dollar store. There were four in each pack so this is a really budget-friendly way to add numbers.

To write on the wood slice, I used a stencil. I penciled the outline and then filled in the number with a fine black pen.

You can keep the same theme on the table by adding the greenery to glasses, napkin rings or just tossing pieces of moss around.

To easily add a sprig of moss to a champagne stem, use a small piece of clear tape to stick on the stem.

Add some pretty ribbon over the tape. I used vintage seam binding and I love the way it gently drapes off the stem.

This is a fun and inexpensive way to spruce up a table. To add even more of a Woodland look, add a few mushrooms or small deer figurines. Fun!

Thanks so much for stopping by.
