Like I had mentioned in my previous post, Mr. Flamingo and I wanted some type of chandelier on a stand for our centerpieces, but we didn’t want to make a big hole in our budget. While shopping for the holidays, I suddenly had this “AWWWWWWWW” moment - and I apologize because I never showed you what that AWWW piece was.
Well without further ado here it is:
They are beautiful, clear, vase-type candle holders. We got 2 different models - the ones you see at the front which are shaped like wine glasses, and the ones at the back that are thin and long. Both models have a ribbed pattern in the glass which will create beautiful lighting. Plus they are all different heights - so it will create such a great effect.
These vases were such a deal : the smaller ones were 9.99$ and the taller ones were 12.99$, all purchased at Winners and HomeSense.
After showing you all the bits and pieces of my centerpieces I can finally show you the finished product. Now I apologize for the blurriness of the photos. Either way I’m pretty sure you’ll get the picture. (get it picture -
)
My DIY chandelier on a stand:
I am so happy with the outcome. Even my mom is glad she took part in the DIY - she’s the one that cut all the strands of beads and created the hooks using jewelry wiring to give it a WOW factor.
Here are close ups of the votives and the beading:
We have 22 vases in total and with everything: vases, candles, votive holders, tea lights, bead stands, bead curtain, wiring and mirrors, our centerpieces came out to 19.00$ each (including 13% taxes).
So what do you think?
