For the first arrangement, I used a vintage milk can, some roses, and peonies to make the prettiest farmhouse-style centerpiece!

Then, I shared a simple floral centerpiece using just one type of flower. But, those peonies make such a statement, don’t they?!

Last week, I switched it up a bit with a DIY wood centerpiece. This may be my favorite one yet!

See how I used a scrap 2x4 board and transformed it into a simple wooden farmhouse style centerpiece using 5 blue glass vases. Add in some beautiful silk roses and you have a gorgeous, easy centerpiece!

For this week, I’m sticking with the DIY theme and making a crazy easy wooden box perfect for a farmhouse-neutral floral centerpiece!

Supplies for DIY Wooden Box Centerpiece:

Flowers Used for Centerpiece:

Greenery
- Seeded Eucalyptus (5)
- Lamb’s Ear (3)
Flowers
- Peach Pink Peony (3)
- White Peony Pick (3)
- Ranunculus Spray (3)
- Peony Rose Spray (2)
- Baby’s Breath

Note: Some flowers have seasonal availability. If you click over and don’t see the product, follow the categories below to find similar options!

Step 1. Cut Wood to Make the Box

To build the box we used the miter saw to cut the board into

2 x 18 in pieces (sides)
1 x 16 1/2 in pieces (bottom)
2 x 3 3/4 in pieces (ends)

Lay the bottom piece flat and use the nail gun to nail one long side piece into the bottom piece.

Then, fit the smallest pieces (the ends) in between the side boards. Use the nail gun again (and a square!) to nail the end pieces in (2 nails on each side). Last, nail the second side piece into the bottom/end pieces.

Be sure to keep the wooden box square by using clamps and a speed square to help you nail it together and create a right angle for your box

Using the finish nailer to connect the wooden box and leaving the nail holes exposed to have a rustic look

We left the nails visible since this was a rustic box. I finished it up with a coat of Natural wood stain which just brings out the grains in the wood.

Step 2. Install Floral Foam in the Box

I started by cutting down the floral foam to fit inside the box. It would have been better if the foam actually just fit in the box but I just used what I had on hand.

Creating a foam base to put the flowers and greenery in cut to size inside the box but also leaving room for stems and leaves

I laid out all the flowers I was using. It’s easier to see what you’re doing when you have everything out in front of you.

Step 3. Lay Out Flowers for DIY Wooden Box

I picked all white or cream-colored flowers. This centerpiece is definitely neutral! But, the best part is it can be used year-round.

Step 4. Add Greenery to the Centerpiece

First, I added in all the greenery. Make sure to spread everything out!

Step 5. Add Flowers to DIY Centerpiece

Next, I filled in the rest of the box with all the cream and white flowers! I used peonies, roses, and ranunculus blooms. Lastly, I filled in some gaps with baby’s breath.

And, that was it! I didn’t really have a specific idea of what I wanted this to look like. Basically, I wanted a LOT of blooms and a LOT of neutral. I think I achieved that 🙂

I think I had the most fun designing this centerpiece! It was so therapeutic to make.

I think I said this in a previous post but making flower arrangements is like an art. There’s no right or wrong way.

You may take the exact same flowers/box I used and make something completely different. And that’s okay! Experiment and make your own and make it {{YOU}}.

Neutral color flowers are great for any season and work with almost any sort of craft you might want to take on

If you’re looking for a farmhouse-style arrangement, you can’t go wrong with peonies, roses, and seeded eucalyptus.

I think those are pretty much the basis of all farmhouse arrangements.
