What can I put under mason jar centerpieces that isn't too expensive???

What about charger plates? That's what I'm using under mine. I got them for about $1 or $2 at Michaels and then used a coupon.

What about colorful napkins? Get your colors & alternate, if you got personalized ones & have extra I'd use them

What do you consider expensive? Is $10 expensive? $5? $2? It's hard to help without a bit more info since expensive means something different to everyone.

I know you said placemats were expensive, they can be - I got mine for $7 each and I've seen them for as low as $3. They made a huge difference for my decorations so were completely worth the expense in my mind.

Well, first off, I like to buy things in bulk, rather than buy one thing at a time. If I have to buy things individually, $7 wouldn't be too bad. But like some of the doilies I found are like $20 for two. That's too expensive.

Have you considered going to a fabric store (like JoAnn) and buying a few yards of lace, satin, etc? You can cut it in the shapes you need and it usually isn't too pricy.

A friend of mine use mirror tiles beneath her centerpieces and it looked amazing. She got hers a Michaels but I'm not sure what she paid for them. I've found them for about $2 a piece. If you're set on the doilies, check a thrift store or second hand markets, they might come in a bundle for a steal.

Dollies are not expensive! You need to look for bulk ones online. I found mine for $20 for like $10 or something! I don't remember where though..

That's a set of two doily like placemats for under 10 bucks?

You can get "cuts" of wood, they sell them at michaelsbreally cheap you can get some from r inches to about 18 inch in diameter. My best friend used them at her wedding and it looked so cute

Mirrors ! oriental trading has good prices on them.

Ikea sells the square mirrors for like $1 a piece. We are using cloth napkins. I can get a set of 10 for like $25 on amazon. Much cheaper than a table runner.

I love the idea of scrapbook paper . There are so many awesome patters/colors that I'm sure you could find something that would work. It's also a good size and shape as is. If you need it to be sturdier maybe you can mount it to some poster board. Good luck.

Get a lace table runner and cut your own. Then you can get many for merely 12.99

They sell mirrors at dollar tree. Meaning a dollar a piece. Cant beat that!

Instead of lace or paper doilies, you could try using small table clothes or cloth napkins to off-set your mason jars.

If you can acquire them, simple, unadorned drink coasters can also make good platforms.

I'm having the wood under mine. My dads looking into finding something to cut for us if not I'll buy them from The craft store with coupons

Cut wood

Annas linens has lace doilies and placemats on sale right now! Like $1 pp when you price each piece out?

I almost did it, but I need to dye mine black before I can use them.
