Rose centerpieces work well for special occasions such as weddings or for everyday use. Centerpieces with floating roses add a special touch and can be done with any color rose including red. Several methods can be used to float roses in a water-filled centerpiece. Choose roses that are just starting to open so they are fresh but the petals are wide enough to float on the water. Use a clear glass bowl or other container to create the centerpieces. Accent centerpieces with rocks or shells in the bottom or choose a wide bowl and place several roses and floating candles…
