Don’t you ever get tired of seeing clear glass votives stuck on a table around a flower arrangement at parties and receptions? Don’t get me wrong…sometimes glass votives are appropriate and beautiful…
…take this table, for instance…full of clear glass and whites…

However, too often brides settle for a few votives strewn around a flower arrangement…and call it a day…mostly because they can’t think of anything else to do. Here’s an idea I love from Floral Verde…
…clear glass votives sporting fabric and lace sleeves…
…transformed from plain to couture in a snap…
Now I know you must be imagining the tedious work of sewing or gluing or taping the fabric and lace to the votive holders…and trust me, it’s a lot of work…especially when you’re planning to use several per table. But here’s some good news…
Janet, owner of Floral Verde…
…has decided to open an Etsy shop where you can buy her covered votives…with lace…
…or without lace…
The fabric sleeves slip off so you can clean the glass votives….and the sleeves are available in ivory silk, lemongrass green silk (seen above), Tiffany blue satin, and juniper blue silk. How’s that for simplifying your ‘To Do’ list?
Happy Tuesday!
