what is a good centerpiece for a dining room table.....something that stays on the table, not just for a holiday....thank you

I like the idea of changing centerpieces - every few weeks or month or so. It adds interest and a refreshed point of view. Seasonal greens, branches, twigs in a glass vase adds an earthy look. A grouping of ceramics pieces on a decorative tray (for protection) looks lovely as does a single, large piece such as a bowl. Pay attention to proportion-if using small items, use more than 2 or 3 small items to show volume. Or, add perspective and feature a themed collection of different size pieces, but use fewer pieces in this case. Feature color, a specific or mixed theme, texture and then change it when you get bored.
