Inspiration: Sunflowers

What a great idea! The wide “fruit” of a sunflower is the perfect spot to nestle a placecard. This would be adorable for a dinner party to celebrate summer solstice (June 21).

I bet you could also serve an elegant artichoke standing up like this, with the stem cut off at the base.
