If you’re planning a winter luau party, or you’re getting ready for a pool side gathering next summer, I have an easy tropical party decoration or centerpiece to share with you today. All you need is some fruit, palm  or fern leaves, and some glass jars and you can make a spectacular tropical center piece for your next party or event. Check it out.

This would work great for weddings, prom, a birthday party, or even a baby or bridal shower. I can see this outside on a table by the pool in the summer. Here are the simple instructions to make your own.

Flowers and Citrus Vases

Simply place oranges, limes, or lemons in rectangle, or round clear glass vases. Fill the vase almost to the top with whole fruits, then add fresh water to surround the fruits. Add a few large colorful tropical blooms to the mix for a very bold and beautiful tropical centerpiece or table decoration.

Pineapple Palm Trees

Cut the bottoms out of, or completely core 5 pineapples, then stack them one on top of the other. Insert large palm or fern leaves into the top pineapple to make them look like palm trees.

Have fun!
