Grad Party Table Centerpieces

I have mentioned a few times in my blog posts that our youngest child, a daughter, is graduating from high school this year. (She also graduated with an AA degree at the local community college on May 18th, through a post secondary option program!)


The grad party will be at the country club, because our daughter has been on the high school golf team since 7th grade, and has also worked at the golf course since she was 15.


The high school colors are purple and gold. This is one of the table centerpieces that we are using for the party.



The table runners are cut from green indoor/outdoor carpeting and shaped to represent the greens at our country club. Holes 1-12 have first grade through 12th grade school photos on the flags. Holes 13-18 flags have random photos of her.

This pot has purple Angelonia and yellow Violas. Other pots have different combinations of purple and gold.


The flags were made from purple and gold card stock, dowels, vinyl peel off numbers, ribbon, and 2" x 2" photos. I covered the flags with clear contact paper. (just in case it rains)



We have had very cool and wet weather the whole holiday weekend that has me behind schedule on flower planting and house cleaning.

I will share more grad party decorations in a later post!
