Floating Candle Valentine's Day Tablescape
This stunning Valentine's Day tablescape with floating candles is so simple and easy to make and can be whipped up in moments. It looks impressive and will give you the wow factor without you having to spend hours setting it all up. See the full tutorial and more photos over on my blog, chalkingupsuccess.com.
Here's what you'll need
3 Glass vases of differing heights. (Small, medium and large)
2 packs of clear glass chips
Submersible tea lights
Fresh or faux flowers in the colour of your choice
Three floating candles
Water.
Place a waterproof tea light into the bottom of each glass. These type of lights usually light up once they are in contact with water and will go out as soon as you take them out.
Tip the glass vase onto its side and gently pour in some of the glass décor pieces. You just need enough to cover the waterproof tea light and weight it down.
Next slip in your flower. As this was Valentine's Day table decoration I used a faux orchid in mine this time but in the blog post, I give some other suggestions for using this same décor throughout the year with or without the floating candles.
Now fill the vases with cold water to just below the rim.
Re-arrange your flower if it has moved and once you're happy with how it looks, pop in your floating candle.
There you go, now that couldn't be any easier, could it?
Now go and check on your gourmet meal or get your glad rags on because you've created a stunning Valentine's Day tablescape.
All that's left to do is to light those candles and enjoy an unforgettable evening with your honey!

Am I the only one who’s never heard of waterproof tea lights? Love this look! Will definitely try!

No, Nancy, I had never heard of them either until I made this tablescape. They come in all sorts of colours too - so pretty!

They sell tea lights @ any dollar store. In packs of 10. Just pop out the metal bottoms.
Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
where do you get the floating candles?
I m sorry I must have missed your response on where to obtain the floating lights……Also did read that you used two (2) lights, one on the bottom & one on top?
