Memorial Day centerpieces can be as simple as a white vase with star picks or as layered as a tiered tray filled with flags, signs, and flowers. Red, white, and blue details show up in mason jars, painted bottles, baskets, wood boxes, and coffee table trays, giving you plenty of ways to style a dining table, buffet, kitchen island, or smaller side table.
