Centerpieces

So.

I'm still trying to figure out what the heck to do for centerpieces. I have cylinder vases that could be either used to put flower (tulips) in, which would have to be done the day before/day of the wedding... but I've also been trying to figure out a way to incorporate origami into it. Currently I have some wire, fishing line (thanks Michal!) and cranes made to fiddle around with. Think: suspending cranes from fishing line in vase or use wire to depict cranes flying out of the vase (see pic below). Let's see how far my creativity will get me.
















I also found a cool idea on-line - this pic shows a bunch of little cranes in a vase. Not sure if it would be too busy, and it would be very labor intensive!
