Embroidery Hoop Centerpiece How-To

Learn how to make these Bohemian chic hanging wedding centerpieces from embroidery hoops.

1. Search for fabric that's delicate and allows light to pass through; gauze linen and sheer organza, like the ones we used here, are great options. Striped linen (#834), B&J Fabrics. "Jules" sheer organza in daiquiri and golden gold by Wolf Home, from Silk Trading, 212-358-8800.

2. Stretch the fabric tautly over the inner, smaller hoop over it with the screw clasp at the top (use the screw to adjust the outer hoop for a snug fit). Embroidery hoops, 6 to 14 inches, from Michaels.

3. Trim excess fabric closely with a craft knife or small scissors.

4. To hang, tie one end of a ribbon around the screw clasp.
