Tutorial of an Idea to Decorate Dollar Tree Artificial Candles

I enjoy visiting Dollar Tree, where I often purchase these artificial candles that allow me to give them a personal touch and adapt them to my home’s decor on each occasion.

One of the standout features of these artificial candles is their ability to provide a pleasant glow without the risk of wax spilling as they melt, making them a practical and safe choice for decoration.

Furthermore, their non-flammable nature is particularly reassuring when we receive unexpected visitors, especially those with children, as there is no danger if the candles are accidentally touched.

In the following tutorial, we will explore how to use Silver Leaf to embellish these artificial candles and transform them into decorative elements that enhance the ambiance of our home.

In this tutorial we will be using the Silver Leaf to decorate them.

MATERIALES QUE NECESITAS

• LED Pillar Candle – Dollar Tree 
• Silver Leaf
• Glue
• Mod Podge
• Brush
• Rhinestones
• Silver Twine

Apply glue directly to the candle and begin to place pieces of Silver Leaf irregularly.

With a brush, press the pieces of silver leaf to adhere to the candle.

Then, when the glue has dried and the whole candle is covered with the pieces of silver leaf, brush over the pieces to eliminate residues that didn’t glue well and to make it more smooth.

Once the Mod Podge has completely dried and your candle shines with its silver leaf coating, it’s time to add the finishing touch. Now, you can unleash your creativity and add a silver cord in the way you prefer as an additional decorative element. To do this, simply use your hot glue gun and attach the cord to the bottom of the candle. This will give it an extra touch of elegance and style to your decorative candle.

In addition, if you’re looking for additional ways to decorate your candles and further personalize them, there are several creative options you can explore. An interesting alternative is to use acrylic diamonds and apply them with hot glue to add a touch of sparkle and sophistication to your candles.

Another idea is to wrap the candles with decorative ribbons in colors and designs that match your decoration theme. You can also choose to create specific patterns or designs on the candles using acrylic paint and brushes, allowing you to experiment with different styles and colors.

Furthermore, consider the possibility of incorporating natural elements such as dried leaves, twigs, or dried flowers, which will add a rustic charm to your candles.

The options are diverse, so let your creativity flow and customize your candles according to your style and occasion!

What I like about these decorated candles is their ability to adapt and seamlessly complement the surrounding environment, especially at events like birthday parties or other celebrations where you want to emphasize a specific color.

Let me illustrate this with the following two images: in the first one, the candles are placed on a vibrant fuchsia surface, and you’ll notice that their appearance changes significantly.

The light and the reflection from the surface are cast onto the candles and the background wall, giving them a distinct look. Meanwhile, in the second image, the same candles are in the same setting, but this time on a white surface.

This candle decorating project has come to fruition, and the final result is beautiful. Take a look at how these Artificial Candles, originally simple, have been transformed into beautiful works of art thanks to the creativity and personal touch you have given them.

The careful addition of silver leaf sheets has created a striking and elegant effect that adds a sophisticated shine to your space. These candles will not only illuminate your rooms with a warm and cozy light but also serve as eye-catching decorative pieces that will capture the attention of anyone who sees them.

Whether you place them on your dining table, in the living room, or in a special corner, these Artificial Candles decorated with silver leaf are sure to be the center of attention.

Additionally, keep in mind that this decorating technique is highly versatile and customizable, allowing you to experiment with different styles, colors, and patterns to adapt the candles to any occasion or season.

So, don’t hesitate to continue creating unique pieces that reflect your style and creativity. Enjoy your decorated candles and the warmth they bring to your home!
