For an inexpensive, long-lasting centerpiece use potted plants. Many supermarkets sell African Violets, or other small, flowering, potted plants at inexpensive prices. Buy several of those miniature pots, place them in a small wicker basket, and you have a terrific centerpiece that looks like it cost much more than you actually paid for it. It's a cinch to assemble, easy to maintain, and can last for months if you have a green thumb.
