MemberHi bees
So I just came up with this idea today. I plan to have some tealights on my table as part of the decor but I wanted to make them pretty. So I used one of my ribbon flower patterns and incorporated the tealight in it. Do you all think it’s cute or no? I will be using battery powered tealights since my venue doesn’t allow open flames.
MemberI think it’s too precious. Maybe something more simple would be better, like a votive holder with a ribbon wrapped once around it? That would use the ribbon.

MemberThat’s so dangerious that you shouldn’t even consider it. Fabric is flamable.
MemberUntil I saw that you said you would use “battery operated” candles, I was just thinking FIRE the whole time lol. I think they are cute.
MemberI realize it’s flammable. I did mention that my tealights are battery ones because I can’t have flames at the venue. I just don’t have my electric tealights here to show as an example.

I think they are cute! Maybe try different colors?
MemberI didn’t see the battery operated part. But they still give off heat.

MemberVery cute. But if you’re afraid it’s too frilly maybe have it a little less full (less layers) or use a different ribbon.
MemberI am absolutely NOT trying to be mean, but you asked opinions and mine is that it seems a little…childish? That’s not the right word maybe, but every time I look at it I just think of a little kid’s tutu. BUT, PLEASE keep in mind that my BF is always telling me that my tastes are “tacky” so maybe I don’t know what looks good to begin with!
MemberMember
thank you all for your opinions and concerns on this. feel free to keep them coming
PS hope I didn’t sound snarky in the second post repeating the battery lights
MemberI think simple always looks more elegant, which is why I think you should go for something without frilly ribbon. But if that’s your taste, then that’s fine — it’s your wedding! I’m not going to be there!! That being said…what about the “candles” and the mini pumpkins…using white and orange ones? That would look nice…
