Nature's Bounty Centerpiece
Monday, August 4, 2003

Supplies:

  • Large clear Fishbowl
  • Clear cylinder same height as the fishbowl
  • Marbles
  • Assorted produce: (I used carrots, Broccoli, corn on the cob, grape tomatoes, cilantro, jalapenos, and wild flowers from the garden)
  • Floating candle
  • Water
Instructions:

 1.
Place cylinder inside of fishbowl

 2.
Add marbles to both containers.

 3.
Place veggies and flowers in the fishbowl in a random fashion. Noting that the heavier produce will help to anchor the stuff that floats. I placed the flowers after I did the veggies.

 4.
Fill the cylinder about half way with water and then fill the fishbowl. The veggies may shift some as the water is added, just rearrange as you see the need. By not filling the cylinder all the way the light glows through the produce in the fishbowl and gives a wonderful effect.

 5.
Place candle in the cylinder and light.

 6.
You can use what ever produce is available in your area, and fruit would work great too. Have fun and enjoy the wonderful bounty that Nature has provided! DAZ
