Flameless Candles - Reneabouquets

Hi scrappy friends!

Well, I've gotten bit by the home decor embellishing bug! You know, where everything you look at NEEDS to be embellished!

 I was looking around my room and saw these two flameless candles and
they looked so plain...I had to embellish them.




 The candles are flameless (a must for cat owners), battery operated candles with timers. So they pop on at the same time each evening. 

The first thing I grabbed was my Reneabouquets embellishment box full of beautiful laces, flowers, bling and butterflies! 



I wanted this candle in a gold glass holder to look a bit vintage. The candle is ivory, but looks yellow in this photo because the light is turned on.


I covered the candle with two rows of Reneabouquets Elegance Ivory and Gold Lace. It's one of my
favorites because of the gold accents. I used a piece of gold trim from my stash to bring out the gold in the White and Gold lace.

I placed bows using white tulle and a couple of pearl sprays before adding the flowers.


I love the little rose buds!


I used Reneabouquets Pink and White Mulberry Roses and leaves. They are gorgeous! And, by the way, the flowers come in a beautiful organza drawstring bag.

And last, but not least, added the sweet Reneabouquets Vintage Ballerina Fairy #2 (Green).
I love that you can order Renea's diecuts facing left or right, just depends on your design.





The second flameless candle is for the bathroom. I wanted it to be a bit more playful and pink! 

I used Reneabouquets Rose Crown Lace and added some Reneabouquets Pink Chunky Glitter glass to the roses in the lace design.  It's hard to see in the photos, but the roses now have a sheer pink sparkle.



On the the candle lid I gathered some Reneabouquets Delicate Beauty Guipere Lace and placed in a circle around the top. I added a pearl spray, looped some pearls on a string, and one of the beautiful, "fluffy", Reneabouquets Pink Chiffon flowers. These flowers have pearl and rhinestone centers, but still look so "delicate".



I used two of the pink chiffon flowers from the Shabby Chic pack of three flowers in light pink, pink, and white.

I made some charms to hang down the sides....and...




...the finishing touch, of course, Renea's butterflies! I used the Tiny Treasures Sweet as Candy butterflies with gold antennas. They are a soft pink with glitter glass...so pretty!


Now, on to the next home decor project....hmmmm....
