How to Use Valentine Scrabble Tiles in an Easy Centerpiece

Happy Valentine’s Day!   I know it’s a little late to share a Valentine project with you but maybe you can just pin it for next year!

By now y’all know how I feel about Scrabble tiles!  I love ’em!!!  They’re one of my favorite things to find at garage sales and thrift stores.  But it wasn’t until just recently that I found out they come in so many different colors.  (Check out this post where I list sources.  I ordered red AND pink!)

Valentine Scrabble Tiles Centerpieces

These two Valentine Scrabble tiles centerpieces were inspired by memories of my inlaws home.  They always had a bowl of games on the kitchen table — cards, Uno, Skip-Bo, dominoes, etc.  My father-in-law would sit and play solitaire or play a game with the kids while my mother-in-law cooked dinner.  What precious memories!  But they don’t have to be memories… let’s pull out some simple games and turn them into centerpieces!

This first vignette actually includes a set of ivory dominoes that belonged to Bikeman’s grandmother.  She was one good domino player.  “Forty-two” was actually her favorite.  One round around the table and she could practically tell everyone what they had in their hand!

Now for the NEW Scrabble tiles that I just ordered.  These are plastic but the colors were perfect for Valentine’s Day.  I displayed them in the vintage Crown canning jars that Lauren found in Canada for 25c each!

A little later they got mixed up together so I consolidated them into one jar.  I think I like them better that way.  We can still play with them mixed up.

Shocking… the remote is actually in the remote tray.  That doesn’t happen very often!
