Manzanita branches are so versatile. When we were getting married I wanted our centerpieces to be like the photo above. Unfortunately it was too expensive to ship manzanita branches to Mexico. I did have our wedding coordinator try it out with regular branches but it didn't look the same. We ended up with a grouping of white pillar candles and orchids sprinkles around them. It was simple, I was in love and I was holding a margarita. Perfect. But I'm still itching to do something with manzanita branches.
When I was searching the Apartment Therapy archives I came across this centerpiece. Isn't it gorgeous?
I'm considering making one and hanging it above my fireplace. At Christmas I'll replace the birds with ornaments. See? Versatile.

I LOVE Manzanita branches. We had the same problem. Apparently it's not native to Mexico :-). I'm also loving curly willow. BTW - I've seen people make jewelry trees from Manzanita branches and they look awesome!
I looove the red!
That red is STUNNING! This whole look is just so organic and beautiful, but I have no doubt your tables looked gorgeous without them.
i so wanted to do branches! but they are expensive and i would need so many of them. in love and holding a margarita sounds like the best time!
it's such a unique and fun idea! :)
