DIY: The Perfect Candle, Flower/Leaf Arrangement



There are times when I wish I had the time to do a lot of things myself, I love decorating my home even though I am not married. The ideas there are on the internet and the time people spend creating these beautiful items is all so mesmerizing.
I would like to share the idea of a Flower Vase and a Candle Stand all in one. The things you need are simple, vases of different sizes, artificial flowers, candles that are not more than 2 to 4 inches thick and at the end a professional advice from the interior designer in Lahore.. They are not to be very tall but should fit the opening up the vase. Try to get a good adhesive that dries quickly and does not wash away with water. Now comes the part where the magic begins, you start by adding the adhesive at the bottom of the vase attaching the flowers to it. Once they are dry completely you can then start by filling them up with water. Then gently place the candle on top and there you go a perfect arrangement for parties, evening tea or even candle light dinners.
As I live in Lahore, these kind of arrangements can work perfectly with any type of vases, whatever the size and shape as long as they are transparent and will be liked by my family and friends. You can make this up with fall leaves, the idea is quiet simple too here. Just grab a couple of leaves from your garden or any place and any kind of leafs. Cover them up with transparent spray paint which adds the shine and the gloss preserving them for a long time. Let them air dry completely and paste them on the inside of a vase covering it completely. Fill them up with water and place candles and gently let them float. After you are done with the arrangements, consult a professional Pakistani interior designerto give it a final touch. These are some of the interior design ideas that you can implement on your DIY projects and you do not need to spend lots of money for these kind of things. Improvisation and thinking of ways to make something simple
into something beautiful.
