My DIY centerpieces..

What do you think? I might get different votives/tealight holders. These are just to show that im putting something on the side of the main bowl.
Be honest-change anything??
(The petals are the wrong color-they are going to be a light blue these are actually too purpley)

pretty

that looks really pretty Great job!

just a thought - there's a thread on BHB - Deanna - an 07 bride - got light up floating roses!!! She said they last 11 hours instead of having to worry about the candles blowing out!!!!!

I think it's lovely though!!!

I thought of that!!! But wasn't sure how they looked. I will get some samples and see. The bowl does say do not use with floating candles LOL. OOPS! B/c the candle gets so close to the rim of the bowl. My luck they will explode

Thank you so much!!!! I'm going to get some samples.
Do you think I should still put the tealights/votives on the side?

sure - why not? though same type of thing - you may want to be concerned about people touching them....but if they haven't seen candles before - it could be their own stupidity...

I just ordered the battery ones lol. I'll see how they look together.
I love candles and I think it would look so pretty so maybe i'll just keep the tealights (i'll leave burn kits on the tables )

It looks beautiful!!

On the site that Jess posted, there's also batter operated votives..so thats another idea too!

beautiful!

Very pretty

Thanks everyone.

I bought battery operated ones last night. So we'll see how those look.
