Anyone here creative and know how to do this?

Does anyone know how to make the tea lights hang safely?  I want to do this:  http://saltboxhome.blogspot.com/ and am unsure of how to do it!

Let me know if you have any ideas!

Thanks!

Re: Anyone here creative and know how to do this?

  • I agree with the PP, you need to have a secure holder for the tealights. You can buy the holder the tealight sits in and there's a ton of places online that sell them. That way you know they're meant to be hung from a tree and you don't have to worry about them falling apart.
  • Ditto PPs, and I would also recommend using electric tealights instead of real ones; they're more expensive (~$1/each) but much safer and look like the real thing when they're in frosted holders.
  • They make special hanging tealights that you can purchase. In fact, I think these are the exact ones in the photo! http://www.illuminatedgarden.com/hanging-votive-01124.html

    Obviously those are a tad expensive, but if you do some google searches or ebay/amazon searches you can probably find a good deal. If you still want to make your own, at least you can see some close-up pictures to get ideas! Good luck!
