Metallic Reversible Riser Centerpiece Vase Set Up Instructions

Pieces Included:

Trumpet Vase Pieces
Center Connector Sphere
Long Connector Screw
Nuts
Circular Washer Disks

Step by Step Instructions:

Step 1: Start by screwing one nut at the end of the long connector screw. While screwing in the nut, slip one of the washers behind it to keep the nut in place.

Step 2: Pull the screw (nut and washer side facing out) through the widest opening of one of the trumpet pieces. If done correctly, the washer disk will fall into place inside of the narrow part of the trumpet piece.

Step 3: Lay the trumpet piece with the screw on its side. While holding the connector screw in place from the inside of the trumpet vase, place the connector sphere through the long connector screw. Push the sphere flush against the trumpet piece while keeping the washer disk secure inside of the trumpet piece. (Note: You can also perform this step with an additional person holding the pieces in place instead of laying them down.)

Step 4: Place the narrow end of the second trumpet vase through the connector screw until it's tightly sandwiching the connector sphere between the two trumpet pieces.

Step 5: Pull the connector screw so the trumpet vases and connector sphere are flush. Placing the last washer disk through the screw and push it as far down as you can towards the narrow part of the vase.

Step 6: Add a nut to the end of the connector screw and firmly twist it down until the disk is secured.

Step 7: Remove your vase from its side position and stand it up on either side — it's now ready to use!

(Note: After setting up you will have an extra nut left over. This piece is not required to assemble your metallic reversible riser, but is provided as an extra piece in case one of your other nuts is lost or misplaced.)

Choosing Between Fresh Flowers or Faux Flowers

Now that your metallic reversible riser flower centerpiece vase is set up, you are ready to begin the exciting step of decorating your centerpiece with a variety of fresh or faux bouquets and floral arrangements! The curvaceous style of the reversible riser vase effortlessly serves to accentuate the voluptuous shape of your blooms. But what style flower should you use?

Faux Flowers:

Faux flowers are often preferred due to their long-lasting beauty that never wilts or loose its shape

These flowers can be used on multiple occasions (in the same arrangement or in a brand new design)

They can be kept forever as a treasured memory of your special day

They can be given away as a keepsake for guests

The flower arrangements can be made ahead of time and will always look fresh and beautiful

No need to worry about the florals giving you and your guests allergies

They're easy to transport from place to place

They're low maintenance and don't require constant watering and attention

Real Flowers:

Nothing can compare to the original natural beauty and vivid colors of authentic flowers

Real flowers not only look great, they also smell fantastic

(Note: If real flowers are used for your metal reversible risers, be sure to clear up any water that may have gotten on your riser thoroughly to avoid rust or water spots on your centerpiece. A helpful tip is to use floral sponges to absorb and avoid pouring water directly into the vase.)
