Using Floating Candles Centerpieces won’t cost you a Fortune

Our last discussion was on candles floating in water and their beauty (if you have not read that post you can read it here Candles Floating) however, today we want to confine ourselves to the containers of these candles i.e. the floating candles centerpieces.



It is a known fact that candles add a touch of elegance to any event (Check out earlier post Floating Candles Phenomena). Using floating candles centerpieces to decorate dinner tables at formal or informal events seems to be one of the most popular ideas. These centerpieces add a special feeling to a gathering especially gathering such as a huge wedding reception, a large anniversary dinner or a backyard barbecue.

Ask anyone and they would tell you how great candles are especially at evening parties and floating candles have an extra flicker that just adds something extra to the scenery. You can buy candles that reflect the theme of a gathering for a special occasion i.e. having heart shaped candles are a good idea when it comes to wedding receptions or parties while rose shaped candles do a great job carrying the mood of a romantic occasion. You can even have candles with numbers on them t celebrate birthdays or other number related occasion while there are also floating candles designed specifically for different holidays be it Christmas, New Year, Mother's Day, Father's Day, etc. there is always one to suit your specific needs.



Floating candles centerpieces come in different shaped and sizes to suit the different types and shapes of candles to be placed in them but you can also create your own special one for the special occasion. You can buy them in floating candles kits that come with everything you need so you don’t have to do anything except set them up. You will be surprised at how floating candles centerpieces can add a touch of class to your special occasion. Most event planners these days use floating candles centerpieces as major focal point and I believe you too can do the same.

Candles Floating Centerpieces: Adorning Outdoor Party with Elegance


Organizing a get together in your home either in your backyard or patio requires a little bit of elegance to give your party some color and candles floating in bowls as centerpieces could give you just that. It appears ordinary during day time but they light up your party tables as the evening falls. As the candles float it gives the appearance of lights flickering in the night adding a nice, lovely touch to the evening.

Using candles floating in water can be quite easy there are all sort of information online about using them and how to use them safely. One of the most important safety rules is to keep out of reach of children. Also, keeping them away from pet areas is very important.

Having candles floating in water is quite easy so far you have the right candles. You first need to get bowls large enough to contain more than one candle as you need at least three to four candles in each bowl to create a desired effect. Floating candles are sold in boxes of three or four and they are relatively cheap. You can add some artificial or natural flowers to the bowls also, but make sure the colors of the flowers match the color of the candles.

You can get floating candles in either scented form or unscented form depending on your choice but having light floral scents adds to the overall flavor of the occasion and it would be even more significant if the gathering has a romantic tone to it.

Candles floating in centerpieces provide a lovely sight and you can find a whole lot of ideas for these centerpieces themed on special events online. There are sites for floating candles in boxes, centerpieces, bowls and even floating candles all-in-one kits. The kits would definitely be more expensive than single items but the advantage is that it contains almost everything you need to make your table decorations look superb. You can also (I really recommend this) come up with your own ideas, just let your creative mind loose and you would be surprised at what you can create and achieve.
