Antique Book Covers:

These are great as they come in many sizes and provide an antique mythical look to any decor.

I especially like the idea of using them as table centerpieces.

Pile 2 or 3 of them horizontally with a hurricane candle holder or an antique lantern on top of them. Complete the centerpiece by adding a mercury glass style votive holder alongside the piled books.

For the final touch display different size glass containers filled with colored sand. Another way to decorate them is using feather quill or white and red roses to continue on the main theme.

Old books can be found in antique shops or on flea markets at low cost.

Want a vintage looking favor box for your guests? These antique book looking boxes are just the perfect thing.

Red Roses:

They hold a special place in the story. I’m going to make a long story short. In the novel, the gardeners are painting white roses near the entrance of the garden. In reality, they are attempting to hide that they planted a white rose tree by mistake.

Since roses are a symbol of love and passion, these can easily be used in your wedding decor. Also, many merchants sell props that you use as a backdrop or hang in from the ceiling to make a stunning visual impact.

If you’re not fond of fresh flowers or simply don’t want any flowers in your centerpiece, paper flowers are also a great alternative especially gigantic flowers.
