 Now this is really easy, so if you’re worried that you’re not very creative then fear no more. Simply select your favourite flowers and set them adrift in bowls filled with water, along with pretty floating candles.

The size of the bowls you use is down to personal preference; perhaps you’d prefer to use large serving bowls to create statement centrepieces or for a minimalist look, use smaller bowls. You’ll have yourself beautiful centrepieces that take barely any time to put together and are not going to dent your bank balance.
