I always like to have an easy and simple coffee table centerpiece that goes along with the current season at hand. I had a winter related one on my coffee table most recently (you can see it back on my winter home decor post).
But I was just ready for a change. I wanted something more fresh and with more greenery to liven the space up. And after strolling through Target, and spotting some of the new releases of the Hearth and Hand with Magnolia collection.
I knew just what I needed to do!

Antique Tool Caddy
One of my favorite antique finds is this antique tool caddy I keep sitting on my coffee table. I love it because not only are the wood tones amazing, but you can easily switch it out from season to season.
It has a total of 6 cubby holes in it, 3 on each side. So I always like to place something in there to create a cool and unique statement piece.
You’ve seen me style this piece before to create an easy and simple fall centerpiece. I usually like to place a few glass pieces inside of it. And then add in some greenery or floral options as well.
But, after I saw these cute potted plants at Target, I figured they would be the perfect neutral option to place in there.
I wanted to create something that I could leave out for a long time. Nothing seasonal related that I would have to replace in a few weeks. So no Valentine’s Day decor here!
Adding in Risers to the Tool Caddy
Only problem after I got the faux potted plants, was that they were kinda too short in the caddy.
You couldn’t really see their cute pots and only the tips of the greenery were sticking out. So I needed to find some risers to give them some height.
Although, I didn’t want to have to pay for a total of 6 different risers for the coffee table centerpiece.
I mean, that could get kinda pricey quickly. So I decided to look around my home and see what I had that would work.
And I found something! You know I have an abundance of Antique Candle Co. candles in my home. Mainly because I am obsessed with having my home smell good. And these candles are the best. But also, their candle lids make the perfect riser!
The best part is, it totally didn’t cost me anything. I just took the lids off of candles I wasn’t using, or weren’t burning and placed them inside each cubby hole.
Adding the Faux Plants to the Coffee Table Centerpiece
Once the risers were all in place, I just added the plants on top! I got a total of 3 faux azaleas and 3 faux bean potted plants. And then I just alternated them around in each cubby hole.
I didn’t want to get all 6 of the same plant because I wanted to create visual interest with a couple of different ones.
And that’s it! How easy and simple is that?! The perfect coffee table centerpiece that literally took me only a few minutes to create!
Do you like having a centerpiece on your coffee tables too? If so, what do you like to place there as a centerpiece? I would love to know!
I love stuff like this cause it gives me great ideas for when I finally purchase a home. This is so simple to put together that you wouldn’t really think about a centerpiece unless you saw it in a magazine. Thank you for sharing!
Awe thank you so much. I am so glad you enjoyed it as well.
What a really lovely idea — such a great way to decorate and brighten a living space. Thanks for this house/style inspiration!

Awesome use of an old tool caddy! I did not recognize it for what it is and it fits the plants beautifully. ๐

Thank you so much Lucy. I appreciate it!
Beautiful! I love how easy this is to create and that you can change it out to match the seasons. I don’t currently have a centerpiece on my coffee table because my three-year-old has taken it over with his cars, lol. Maybe someday soon! ๐
Lol that is understandable!
What a beautiful idea. Thank you for sharing. A wonderful way to bring nature into our home.
Thank you so much!

This is so cute, a bit of greenery is so refreshing..
Yes, I love the greenery!
We love candles. I used to light candles every day. But now it’s been a while since we do it. This is awesome idea!
Thank you so much
Loved reading posts that give me inspiration for my own home – really enjoyed reading! You have such lovely photos too!
Great idea! I’ve got a small basket and a few plants from Target already! I’ll put them together for a pick-me-up centerpiece. Thanks.
This looks so cute ๐ฅฐ such a simple way to make such a nice statement in your dining room! Thanks for sharing this cute tip.
Oooh I love this centerpiece. I haven’t been particularly creative with centerpieces because my husband usually eats at the coffee table so it gets super messy. Right now there’s just a book and a candle haha. I’d love to elevate it to something like this!
The tool caddy is a nice and innovative touch! I would have never thought of turning that into a centerpiece. I’ve always loved the simplistic look of plants in the home. Makes it feel very welcoming and it’s perfect for this season as we approach spring. Thank you for sharing!
Awe thank you so much! I am so glad you thought so!
This is a gorgeous centre piece idea, thank you for sharing these suggestions for creating your own centrepiece x

Thank you so much, you definitely should!
I love to put together pretty centerpieces in my lounge area. Some lovely rustic ideas here, thanks!
Such a cute idea! I love how the tool caddy is multi-seasonal and you can switch out what goes in it each season. Those plants from Target are so pretty and are the perfect things to put in it!
Thank you so much! I think so too!
Awhh now this is a super cute centerpiece! It could so easily be switched up for the seasons too, depending on what plants and flowers you add to it!
I know right! I love how easy it is to switch things up!
What a lovely idea!! those look so nice and definitely brighten the room with a bit of color. Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you, I am so glad you enjoyed it as well!
