DIY: Personalized illuminated centerpiece

Soon, the days will get shorter and the air will get a little cooler... which suddenly makes you want to prolong the summer warmth a little longer, right? Good news: it's possible, and it starts with a simple yet enchanting centerpiece that you can create with items you may already have at home.

By: Sylvia Tessie

Here is a decorative idea that is both elegant and easy to personalize, bringing a warm atmosphere to your dinners, brunches, or cozy moments at home.

What you will need:

A large clear glass vase; A wine glass (yes, really!);

A fake flame candle (LED type);

A little water;

Decorative items of your choice: fresh flowers, dried flowers, stones, shells, herbs, small seasonal decorations, etc.

Step 1:

Place the wine glass upside down in the vase - it will serve as a base for the candle. Make sure it is stable! 🙃

Step 2:

Add water around the cut, up to about halfway up the vase.

Then cut your flowers to the desired length.

Step 3:

Place your decorative elements in the water or around the bowl: we chose beautiful seasonal flowers for a lively and colorful effect.

Step 4:

Place the candle on the bottom of the cup (which is now the top!)—the fake flame creates a cozy and safe atmosphere.

Step 5:

Admire your creation! 🌸
