Olympics 2010 - Party Decor - Centerpiece

Decorating for our Opening Ceremonies party tonight has been a lot of fun and easily inspired by the colour palette of the Olympic Rings. I wanted to do something for our table centerpiece that avoided the juvenile feel that can come from primary colors lined up side by side and these dollar store vases, white tulips and water dyed with food coloring seem to be doing the trick! I was hoping that over night the colors might bleed into the white petals, but alas my grade 6 science has failed me.

I love how their shadow casts a heart shaped glow - a perfect hint at this weekend's day of love.
