centre piece of the month
whoops! i almost missed this month's "centre piece of the month", hosted by janelle of talk of tomatoes.
as you can see - it's a quick and easy one this month. but then again - a bucket filled with some sand and a bunch of lovely candles is the perfect centre piece for those first warm nights, where you can sit outside until the sun goes down and you sip some wine with friends until a new day starts...
i used a tiny bucket and very slim candles this time - but if you are hosting a big outdoor party, simply take your big buckets and fill them with sand and candles that burn a couple of hours, so you dont have to worry about them burning down too quickly. you cold also use small stones - i find sand just a little chicer. and the ribbon is just me. i need to attach a ribbon to everything. can't help it!

What a lovely idea! I think the dainty, slim tapers are perfect. It would look like a sparkler on a summer night.
That is so pretty, I'll have to buy some pretty taper candles :)
Perfect!
Like a mini campfire. It looks so casual, yet so elegant.
I can't wait to see what's up this month...
lynn - you are right. they look like little sparklers in the night. glad you like it!

sandi - campfire, that was the word i was looking for. thanks for always coming back to once upon a tart!
Gorgeous. I not only love your centerpiece but I love the table it's sitting on.
That looks so beautiful! Like something you'd see in a magazine... perfect for a summer party or something!
