Materials Required

 

- Glass candleholder (found at Dollar Tree)

- Plate (found at Dollar Tree)

- LED candle (available at Michaels)

- Shimmer lights (available at Michaels)

- Greenery (purchased at Walmart)

 

**Total Cost: $15**

 

- Hot glue

- Wire cutters or scissors



Start by taking your candleholder and plate. Flip the plate so that the bottom side is facing up. 

 Next, apply hot glue around the top section of the candleholder. Once you've done this, turn the candleholder so that the glued side is facing down. Press the candleholder onto the plate, applying a little pressure to ensure it sticks. Set it aside and allow it to dry.

 

After that, take your wire cutters and cut the greenery from the main stem. You will be adding each piece to the outer edge of the plate. (You can place your LED candle in the center to help determine where to add the leaves around the plate.) I left some of the stems on each leaf, but you can either cut the stems off completely or leave them as is.




If you want to hide the stems, you can use leaves from any faux plant and add them to your arrangement. I had some extra eucalyptus leaves from a previous craft project, so I placed them over the stems. This step is optional, but it can help conceal the stems.

 

Once you have added the leaves to your plate, you can start incorporating your lights. Simply loop the lights around and under the leaves. That's it! Your DIY project is complete.

 

If you have any craft beads, you can string them onto some stretch cord or twine. I had some stretch cord and beads left from a prior project, so I added those around my candle.

 

You're all done! I hope you enjoyed this simple project. It has become a beautiful addition to my kitchen, and I love how it turned out. Are you planning to make your own? Let me know in the comments below.

A Touch of Spring: Faux Rose & Wildflower Beaded Wreath Tutorial

Today I’m sharing a soft and delicate spring wreath that comes together beautifully with just a few simple supplies. I’m using a beaded wood wreath as my base, along with faux yellow roses, pink artificial wildflowers, and a bit of foliage to bring everything to life. This project is perfect if you’re looking to add a gentle pop of color and a touch of spring charm to your home. Video tutorial  Supplies You’ll Need Beaded wood wreath Faux yellow roses Pink artificial wildflowers Faux foliage Floral/wire cutters Craft wire Trim Your Florals I started by using my floral cutters to trim the stems of each flower.

Adjust the length to suit your design and the level of fullness you want in your wreath. I began by cutting my yellow roses first. Prepare Your Craft Wire and  Attach the Roses After I trimmed the roses, I cut small sections of craft wire. These will be u...
