What do you think of my DIY Centerpiece?

What do you think of my DIY Centerpiece?

What do you think?? I originally had a bowl with floating candles, but didn't like it.

All of the candles will be white and there will be more rose petals. I know there is too much sand, I will split the bag for two candle holders.

Any input is greatly appreciated!!!

TIA!!!

I think with the added rose petals it will be perfect -- simple and elegant!

Thanks.
I LOVE candles too!!! I ordered the battery ones- they look pretty, but not the same.

when you put less sand the candle will sit lower so it will look really good - maybe you can throw a few rose petals on top of the sand around the candle if you have extra - not sure how it would look but its the only idea i can come up.....or you lean seashells up against the candle if you are going for a summer/beach theme - but if not they are great exactley the way they are!

I think they look great! My opinion...since you asked...LOL The middle candle is too tall...maybe when there is less sand it will sit lower...???? And I agree with Nicole with the seashells...I think that would add a little something to it.

I too love candles!

btw...did you find a good site for wholesale candles? I need a bunch of them too...

Yea I didn't know the entire bag would be too much!
I bought that candle at Michaels today. I dont know where to get them wholesale. Go on a sale day w/coupons?? I'm going to check ebay.

So pretty! Ithink once you lower the candle and add more rose petals it'll be perfect!

Yeah, it is very pretty, and once the rose petals are added it will be perfect!

i love it! it's simple, elegant, and romantic. I love candles!!! If I were doing candle CP's, i'd look for the beige glittery sand....It sparkles a little more with the candlelite....try a google search if you are interested. I saw it on a DIY board, but I don't remember who used it.
