Materials:
- Artificial Orchid
- Cylinder Vase
- Vase Filler
- Floating Candle
- Submersible LED Light
- Distilled Water
Step 1: Measure your orchid stem by holding it against your cylinder vase. Trim the excess stem with wire cutters.
TIP- Submerge one of the flower heads in water for 24 hours prior to your event to be sure the dye does not bleed into the water.
Step 2: Pour vase filler into the bottom of the cylinder vase, approximately three inches. Next turn on the LED lights and add them to the bottom of the vase.
TIP- The LED lights cannot be turned on/off once they are in the vase so do this right before the event.
Step 3: Add the flowers to the vase. Pour distilled water into the vase, leave about two inches at the top of the vase for the floating candle.
TIP- Arrange the vases on the table before you add the water, they will be heavy!
Step 4: Place the floating candle on the top of the water and light. You now have a stunning floral centerpiece that will light up your even tables!
