And my word of the day is...
So, having spent a lot of time picking out my favourite products, I'm ready to unveil my vision!
Ikea.
No, really! Ikea!
It's your local treasure cave of inexpensive candles, candle holders, vases, decorative stones, picture frames and much much more.
I was rather disappointed when, after a bit of research, I realised I was not the only person in the entire world to think of an Ikea wedding. But some of these pictures have captured the idea in a much bigger way:
So, having spent a lot of time picking out my favourite products, I'm ready to unveil my vision!
Take a look at the following centrepiece. Very romantic and pretty, isn't it?
Ikea can recreate this entire picture for just under £12.
Box of rose petals £1.99
1 x votive candle £0.69
Put them all together and you have one beautiful centrepiece that won't break the bank.
All you need for this kind of centrepiece is a set of different sized vases, some floating candles, decorative stones and artificial flowers.
Artificial flowers range from £0.59 to £3.99
What I love about the idea above is that you can mix and match what you want in the set of three vases. The large vase could hold a stem or two of orchids in water, the middle size vase could hold some floating candles and the last vase could hold a single flower bud held at the bottom in water.
Small single vase £0.59
Now for some fancy table numbers. Like the ideas below?
Ikea sells the replicas! (Although I'm pretty sure the picture above is the actual ikea frame!)
Decorative frame £4.99
Set of 2 £0.79
I'm going to leave you on that note. But I couldn't resist sneaking in a few other products for your pleasure. If anyone else has other Ikea ideas or useful products, feel free to share :)
Decorative potpourri £2.79 ea
