Customized coasters Add texture while protecting your tabletops with cute patterns and personlized mono- grams. Coasters with a number are great for birthday parties! c. Elegant cupCake Stand Elevate your pastries in style with this classy reusable cake stand made from repurposed candleholders and vintage plates. d. confetti Splash your table with color using different sized confetti. But don’t just stick to solids, mix in some coordinating patterns.

e. Whimsical pinwheels Make your party décor pop color with these adorable pinwheels. Place them in vintage milk glass, silver vases or mercury glass instead of expensive flowers. f. Cupcake Toppers Another great use for larger confetti; coordinate mismatched desserts with simple toppers made from paper and toothpicks. Customize them even further with monograms or numbers.
