TikToker, Nicole's, idea came while searching for centerpieces of her own. She spotted 10 gold centerpieces from Amazon, but Nicole says she 'could just not justify [spending] $120.'
As a result, she decided to make DIY gold centerpieces of her own. All of which cost under $20. Those on the hunt for wedding inspo are about to be immediately impressed.
To make these, Nicole started off by gathering her Dollar Tree supplies. She used $1.25 glass bowls (which you can get 12 on Dollar Tree's website for just $15) and $1.25 glass candleholders from Dollar Tree along with E600 glue and $5.86 gold spray paint from Walmart.
Then, comes the assembly. Nicole simply glues the supplies together by applying E6000 glue to the top of the candleholder. Then, she holds it against the bottom of the glass bowl.Once the bowls and candleholders are all solidly glued together (Nicole let them sit for 24 hours), they already look so classy. To give these an extra regal touch, she spray paints each.
'So, super easy simple project,' Nicole says. And inspired TikTok users in the comments immediately agreed.
'I think you just saved my wedding budget,' one thankful user commented. 'This is why I love this app!!' another user gushed, 'September bride here and I'm struggling with my centerpieces, thank you for sharing.'
'Are u a rocket scientist?!!!!!!' another blown away user commented. An inspired bride said she 'will be using this for my [her] wedding.'
It really is a spectacular (and budget-friendly) centerpiece idea! For more wedding inspiration, check out Pinterest's top wedding trends of 2025.DIYer Creates Wedding Centerpieces from Dollar Tree Supplies and It's a Budget Lifesaver first appeared on Parade Home & Garden on May 28, 2025

‘Sinners' bonus feature, ‘Good Night' live, Sabrina's song of the summer, ‘Fantastic Four' theme, and what to stream this weekend

Welcome to , your VIP guide to the best of pop culture for the weekend ahead, curated by the Gold Derby team of experts. (June 6-June 8) , Ryan Coogler's cinema-saving horror epic, is now available to rent or buy on VOD platforms like Amazon. Michael B. Jordan stars as Smoke and Stack, identical twin charming criminals who open up a juke joint in 1930s Mississippi. Everything is going great, until the vampires show up. It's a heady mix of horror, crime, comedy, drama, sex, blues music, Black ownership, family, and a bunch of other genres and themes that makes for the year's most exciting and important movie. Check out one of the bonus features, titled "Thicker Than Blood" and available digitally and on the upcoming 4K disc release, showing how Jordan got into character(s): More from GoldDerby 'Sinners' bonus feature: See how the gnarly makeup effects came to life Danya Taymor could make Tony Awards history with a win for 'John Proctor Is the Villain' How 'Severance' creates Lumon's 'manufactured perfection' through VFX After more than two years, we're finally heading back to Wellsbury. And you don't want to miss it. The third season of Netflix's beloved dramedy Ginny & Georgia (now streaming) picks up in the aftermath of the events of the shocking Season 2 finale, which saw Georgia (Brianne Howey) arrested for murder during her wedding to Paul (Scott Porter), the affable town mayor. So, how does a show — and a family — come back from that? By sticking together, obviously. In Season 3, with Georgia under house arrest and awaiting trial, Ginny (Antonia Gentry) finds herself forced to set aside the central duo's differences and fight for her family on multiple fronts, including waging battles against those she never expected. These 10 episodes are a turning point, not just for the show, but for the two dynamic women at its center as well. So, with this compelling new chapter, Ginny & Georgia is the awards contender to watch this weekend. However, if complicated mother-daughter relationships aren't up your alley, other contenders include: Ocean With David Attenborough: Save the cheerleader Save the ocean, save the world. That's the sentiment behind National Geographic's new feature-length special, which sees multi-time Emmy winner and world renowned naturalist David Attenborough take viewers beneath the waves to explore our planet's diverse, yet interconnected, marine ecosystems. As has become the norm for nature documentaries over the last decade (or more), Ocean focuses heavily on the threats that the deep blue sea faces due to humanity's hostile influence, but it also highlights inspirational stories that reveal all hope may not be lost, if we take action now. The documentary airs Saturday at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Nat Geo. It streams the next day on Hulu and Disney+. Good Night, and Good Luck: It's not often we get to experience television history in this day and age, but this weekend marks the first time a Broadway production will be broadcast live on television. The Tony-nominated play starring George Clooney, which was adapted from the 2005 Oscar-nominated film written by Clooney and Grant Heslov, will air its penultimate performance. The play tells the story of veteran journalist Edward R. Murrow taking on Sen. Joseph McCarthy during the Red Scare of the 1950s. The performance airs Saturday at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT on CNN. It will stream on CNN's website, as well as Max. The 78th Annual Tony Awards: If you need more theater in your life after watching Clooney do his thing (who doesn't?), then you're in luck! The Tony Awards — arguably the best of the major awards shows thanks to the rousing live performances that give it non-stop energy — will honor the best of the stage. Cynthia Erivo hosts the spectacle, which features performances by the casts of Gypsy, Sunset Boulevard, Just in Time, Death Becomes Her, and more. As a bonus, the original cast of Hamilton is reuniting to celebrate the show's 10th anniversary (doesn't it feel much longer?). The telecast airs Sunday at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on CBS. It will stream on Paramount+. We're not cooking the books — our top pick for a movie to stream this weekend is . Ben Affleck reprises his role as Christian Wolff, an autistic man who's a genius with numbers and also really good with guns. He works as an accountant for criminal organizations while also serving as an informant for the Treasury's financial crimes division. In The Accountant 2, Affleck is joined by Jon Bernthal as Christian's soldier-for-hire brother Braxton, who had a small role in the first film but gets bumped up to basically co-lead here. When Christian needs help with a job, he calls on his estranged brother, and they reconnect as they go on a gun-toting road trip together. It's literally Rain Man as an action thriller. It's funnier than the original, and Affleck and Bernthal are very entertaining together. After a modest theatrical run, it's now streaming on Prime Video, which makes sense; it's very much in the same vein as the Road House remake, one of the streaming service's biggest original hits. If you're math-phobic, here are some other movies to stream or watch on-demand this weekend: : Director Dan Trachtenberg's quest to revitalize the Predator franchise continues with this animated feature that's now streaming on Hulu. The bloody action flick is something of an anthology movie, as warriors from various time periods — a Viking, a ninja in feudal Japan, and a World War II pilot — go up against a Predator alien who sees them as a challenge. It's Trachtenberg's second released Predator movie, after 2022's cult favorite Prey, and will be followed by live-action thriller Predator: Badlands later this year. : Robert De Niro and Robert De Niro star in this Mafia drama. De Niro plays dual roles as 1950s mobsters Vito Genovese and Frank Costello as they fight for control of the Luciano family. It tells famous tales of Mafia history in a way you've seen many times before, but De Niro, screenwriter Nicholas Pileggi (Goodfellas), and director Barry Sonnenfeld (Bugsy) know what they're doing. There are three actors from The Sopranos in the supporting cast — Kathrine Narducci, Michael Rispoli, and Matt Servitto — if that's something you take into account in deciding whether to watch a mob movie. The Alto Knights flopped in theaters but is looking to find a second life on Max. : Writer-director-producer Tyler Perry is back with a new Netflix drama. Taraji P. Henson stars as Janiyah, a woman at the end of her rope. She's a single mother having an exceptionally bad day. She gets evicted from her apartment, robbed, and disrespected everywhere she goes. She just needs to deposit her check at the bank so she can pay for her daughter's medicine, and when even that goes wrong, she ends up a suspect in a crime she didn't mean to commit, and it turns into a hostage situation. It's a film that empathizes with everyone who is just a few bad breaks away from calamity. The supporting cast includes Sherri Shepherd, Teyana Taylor, and Sinbad. A sure sign that the weather's changing is the arrival of fresh singles aiming to be the season-defining hit. And previous title-holder Sabrina Carpenter is throwing her hat back into the ring with "Manchild," a country-influenced ode to the dim men in her life with a little disco thrown into the mix. The video accompanying the release feels like a deliciously overstuffed trailer for an off-the-wall '70s road movie. Ahead of the release of "First Steps" on July 25, Marvel Studios have debuted composer Michael Giacchino's full main theme for the Fantastic Four. Sonically, the track is a mix of bright mid-century retro-futurism and some more spacey synth. Disney is also releasing the theme on a "Galactic Blue" 7-inch LP, which is available for pre-order here. Get your first listen below. To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Talking Heads' first live performance, director Mike Mills (21st Century Women) has created the first music video for "Psycho Killer," off the band's debut studio album, Talking Heads: 77. Four-time Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan stars in the video as a person slowly unraveling over the course of her daily routine.

A New 007 Lawsuit Setback Has Taken Shape, And I'm Afraid This Could Delay Bond 26 Indefinitely (Again)

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Though we're not seeing much movement from the 007 series on the 2025 movie schedule, there are still some pretty major pieces in play that have kept James Bond 26 on everyone's mind. Unfortunately, one of those developments was a 007 lawsuit posing 'mortal danger' to the franchise at large. Through a new update on the matter, it appears that a swift resolution isn't in the cards any time soon - and the result could be an indefinite pause on what seemed to be an ambitious start to the next era of Bond. Per reporting from The Guardian, the legal case brought forth by property Josef Kleindienst has seen a request from Danjaq, LLC to delay proceedings in the name of building a stronger case to maintain key trademarks. More specifically, the James Bond name, the catchphrase that makes great use of said moniker, and the 00-designation are on the line. As Kleindienst claims that UK and EU copyright law allows those signature elements to be examined 'after five years of 'non-use,'' this is a pretty big deal. Danjaq, LLC is the corporate entity is a vital player in all things 007, as it both co-owns the James Bond copyright (with Amazon-MGM Studios), as well as oversees the merchandising (with EON Productions.) Admittedly Amazon-MGM's supposed plans for Bond 26 feel stymied by this legal action. That, in turn, leaves me with a feeling we could see yet another chapter in the history of James Bond delays. Can you even imagine a movie where James Bond can't even use his name to introduce himself? Failing that, there's no number to fall back on; which already caused some confusion in No Time to Die's reassignment of 007 to Nomi (Lashana Lynch). The potential loss of these trademarks could be the greatest legal hiccup in Bond history since the rights battle over SPECTRE. That gave us some interesting substitutes like Quantum, but also yielded the infamous Never Say Never Again. Even in that case, James Bond was able to use his name, albeit with some stipulations. Not calling an obvious stand in for Blofeld by his name is one thing, but not being able to call James Bond by his own name is a greater disaster. That basically leaves you with something akin to The Simpsons' classic Bond parody (or rather Bont parody) shown below: For a legacy franchise that's trying to move forward into a new chapter, this feels like a nightmare. Without this challenge being handled once and for all, it's assumed that Amazon-MGM Studios and its producing team of Amy Pascal and David Heyman can't truly move forward on a new film. Also, this could be a devastating blow to IO Interactive's Project 007 video game, which is currently in development. But on the bright side, if the team behind an aborted unofficial remake of For Your Eyes Only with Ryan Reynolds still wants in, there may be a way forward... provided they use a different name, of course. As the potential record-setting 007 gap between No Time to Die's 2021 release and Bond 26 continues, the fate of Commander Bond once more hangs in the balance of business deals. So if anyone wants to join me over at the saddest martini bar known as the '007 Waiting Room,' feel free. Though depending on how these legal challenges shake out, we may need to change the name out of safety. How about 'The Tuxedo Room?'
