Reddit mentions: The best tea lights

Flower petals, fake may work better, but I think their pretty classy.

ice I know it may not last long, but you could make a bunch of these and stick them in a bowl for center peices, and possibly put some black glitter in the bottom of it. Extra points if you can somehow get some uhm...that weird ice stuff that makes things smokey. That'd be boss.

I'm trying to think of cheap Ideas, haha.

The only other idea I have, is to get skull shot glasses like this and fill them with purple dyed water/glitter ect. Very small, but still something. Could even get the petals to go around it.

orrr get something like this to go in a smaller sugar skull vase/cup.

These are neat! They look kind of purpley and small. You could get again, flower petals, or silk flowers to border them. That would be cute.

I found this on google. Could probably make it by hand but its a little out there.

Doily + candle., could even use the no flame ones I linked.

I hope your wedding is absolutely wonderful! I demand pictures, because that seriously seems like an awesome idea and I'm pretty jelly. I wanna see how it turns outttt!

Sounds amazing! I hoast a tea about every other month pinterst board. Mine is much less fancy, sometimes we go overboard with sweets, sometimes we stick with savory. Puff pastry is your new BFF (and Philo dough) you can literally put random things on top, egg wash, bake, amazing.

​

For the "wetter" sandwiches know that you'll have to make those about 10 min before guests arrive. Prep is everything! I'll start making recipes about 2 days in advance (lemon loaf, sandwich filling), cookies/sandwich bread day before, and assemble the day of. Use a mandoline for long cucumber slices and lay on the diagonal. Cut the crust off all sandwiches (compost, feed to birds/squirrels).

​

Test the recipes beforehand! Some cookies spread, some sandwiches DO NOT work, some things taste too artificial/lemony/raspberry/lavendery. Ask people if they want to bring things and make a spreadsheet! This will help you know what you want to make to have a really nice meal flow. An example would be having a sweet heavy tea then someone wants to bring enchiladas. An extreme example but you get the idea. One time I was leaning heavy on lemon and lavender, must have put the vibs out, every guest who brought food brought lemon stuff.

​

I gave up on tiers and just go buffet style (on the buffet) and have a separate table for the actual teas. I love this tea warmer these are good tea lights but a hair too big (for airflow) so you'll need to light them about 10 min beforehand. I'm also in a hot climate so having "southern sweet tea" is a must, I don't care for it but two of my friends are from the south-ish areas.

Well, my initial idea was that you and your fiancée could find some way to make one of those wax hands (the kind that you can make at fairs and festivals by dipping your hand in wax) for each table with some white or off white wax, in this position. Then, nestle a tea light into the top of each one (maybe connect the tea light with some hot wax?), and surround it with some black rose petals and some purple and white calla lilies. You could also place the hands in these.


Another idea would be to get some of these face masks, cut off the little strings, cut each one a slightly bigger mouth hole, and paint them apricot. Then get some light bulbs, some super glue, and carefully glue a tea light to the top of each light bulb. Rim the inner edge of the mouth holes with super glue, then nestle a light bulb into each one. Place them face up on the tables, lit and surrounded by the aforementioned flower petals and some more tea lights! (you could also get these tea lights instead if you want to spend a little more to keep more with the purple theme)


I hope either of these ideas was at all helpful haha. I know they might be a pain in the butt to make, but I tried to keep with the theme.


And congratulations on the wedding! I hope that everything turns out amazing :)

That is such a great costume! I will go with EL wire (the battery thingy can be hidden in the "gem") for the tubing, maybe wrap it around some celofan to make it glow in a more uniform way and add bulk to the "tube". The staff itself can be made out of a curtain rod (there are cheaper alternatives).
Just spray paint to match your color, wrap the wire around the staff and voila!

Now the tricky part... I suggest cutting and hot-gluing transparent tapper ware and covering it up with this. It may look weird at first but for the light up effect you can either wrap the EL wire in there or get a couple of these or similar items and just hot glue them; look for battery powered lights!!

Now the casing on the other hand is tricky.. I think you could cut up your tapperware in a way that you only cut the empty panels as in photo #2. Use those panels for the gem, and use the remaining plastic to paint it the same tone as the staff and drill a hole underneath it and hot glue it. The details themselves can be made with aluminum foil or the plastic itself, just remember to match your paint color!!

Is that a good rough guide? I am not a very good cosplayer but I have made an iron man arc reactor (mark I) for the avengers movie and a full bane costume (all from scratch) for TDKR. [I was not allowed in the movie unless I removed the mask, the release in my home country was a week later than U.S.)

Hope I was able to help and if you need more ideas let me know! I love LoL "J-J-J-Janna"!!!

>Interested in this. Very cool. How is the stirring process? Is it sticky or thick? Like distillate? What did you use to stir and did you use a syringe to move it from jar to cart? Also what is a tealight on a dab jar?

So many Q's; I'll elaborate with links to avoid confusion.

A tealight is a small candle, the little round white disc ones. A dab jar is one of those little glass jars higher end dabs come in - I have some leftover from other extracts I reuse. I added .5g extract (bc that's what size carts I have) and 2 drops pyur thinner to the jar, then held it briefly over the lit candle to melt it. Its not the best method, as it could become too hot if not careful, but it was fast, easy, and its what I have on hand ATM. A coffee warmer works too, or an oven on low. The makers of the thinner recommend sealing the mix in a syringe and putting that in hot water to melt it. But any way that melts the extract so you can mix it works. Once it was melted, I stirred like crazy using the same syringe I used to fill, then sucked it into the syringe while it was warm and filled the cart.

It was thin when filling bc it was still warm (makes it much easier to fill), but when cold its the same thickness as distillate; like thick syrup that barely flows when cold but melts and wicks well in a cart in use.

I would like these safe LED tealight candles

they would serve a dual purpose.. one for safe halloween decorations and another for me to put in the bedroom so i don't have nightmares, they last long enough on a charge that i can pass out with a calm flicker and wake up to charge them.

Hope you have an amazing birthday! Everyone deserves a special day once in a while that makes all the odd days worth it just that much more each year..

Happy Birthday!

Yeah, just buy whatever is cheapest. Straight stick candles are cheap and good, but you should have some candle holders ready to be able to burn them safely. Tea light candles are also good. The wide thick decorative candles look nice and burn long, but they tend to be expensive, and burn a hollow into the center, and the high sides blot out much of the light. You don't really need a lot of burn time for your individual candles, it's really not that much of a hassle to replace them once they burn out.

These are super cute candles. Someone was gifted these yesterday!

These help organize cables. I always have a handful of cords with me so these should help make it more organized.

I'd definitely recommend flame-less candles. Something like this is pretty basic. Amazon also has colorful lights. You could also add to the decorative properties of the holder by puncturing holes in them in a decorative pattern using the old hail and hammer routine. you'll of course want to make sure you have something solid on the inside.

Congrats on your first contest!! :D Here is an oil warmer I would love to own! Its $5.20+free shipping :)

You could go as an Ood, pretty easily:

1. pick up some dark blue scrubs for cheap at a scrubs store (you could find one near a hospital) or order online
   
2. get a skin-ish-colored beanie online and sew (or safety pin) a chin-strap from it
   
3. get some pillow-stuff foam and cut it into curly tentacles... maybe? And cover it in red fabric, or spray/paint red, or maybe you could use red rubber bungee and cut it up, etc... somehow make some tentacles and sew it onto the chip part
   
4. Make a paper ball lantern, and put one of these inside, and connect underneath your tentacleys with... something you could probably find at a fabric store (??)
   
   Clearly this is more complicated than I thought. Weeping angel would be muuuch easier. Alternatively, order gas mask on amazon or halloween store, dress in old-timey nurse outfit, fake blood on your hand, walk around asking people if they're your mummy. Punch through walls. Of course, then you'll have to wear a gas mask all night.

Could have used something like this for effect:

Awesome though... better then that "blank" art.

1. I'm going as ken from Street Fighter this year.
   
   
2. LED Tea candles
   
   Good luck with the interview!

Stumbled across these on amazon thought I’d share with ya they are so cute and tiny (:

Cool, cool. I don't know if you can find the actual costume to buy but I've put one together for about $100 from things on amazon. I'll post some links.

Tea lights, the small candles, are super cheap. Here's a set of 30 for $6 .

AiXiAng Handmade Delicate Tealight Cactus Candles for Home Decorative, 6 Pcs in Gift Box https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XBRVQ7N/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_hk7NDbYEMWHWJ

Here they are!

Seriously? These are tea candles.

I prefer warmers that use candles because you can put them anywhere. I bought this one. The quality's good and the bowl can be taken out for cleaning.

Oh, #1, the tea-lights flowerpot thing again! This article claims that I can heat my home with 8 small candles under flower pots for 12 cents per day.

I'm going to be burning 8 tea light candles. Right here I can get 100 tea light candles for $9.25. That's 9.25¢ each. These candles features approximately two hours of burn time That means I'm going to go through 12 sets of 8 candles every 24 hours. That is $8.88 worth of candles every day. I also have to pay for matches and the flower pots.

That is literally 74 times more costly than the article states. It would cost $266 per month, which is more than I pay for my current home heating...in fact it is double.

Also, the radiant heat effect of the terra cotta pot might make this seem warmer than just simply burning the candles, but it is not. Leaving the top off and simply burning 8 candles will warm the room by the same amount in the same time.

What is the depth of the hole? These electric tea lights seem shallower than some other options.
You can probably find some others that fit if you look around.

god bless amazon

Tealight candles are cheap and romantic.

Happy birthday! How old are you going to be? I am turning 30 on the same day.

I have no clue how to construct the crystal but this could be useful in making it glow.

Here's some!

If you type in cactus candles on Amazon, a ton come up

I was just looking at these little succulent and cactus tea candles on Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H2BDMMJ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_zGJEDb98RX5S0

I put these in each end of the toilet tube:

Tealights with Soft Flickering Light

I get them at the dollar store. A little bit of red spray paint and you have flickering, glowing red eyes.

They are a little smaller than the toilet tube, so it still requires a little duct tape.
