Choose a selection of vintage or decorative candlesticks of varying heights to create visual interest.
Clean the candlesticks to remove any dust or residue, ensuring a strong adhesive bond.
Apply a generous amount of strong adhesive to the top of each candlestick.
Firmly press the candlesticks upside down onto the decorative plate or tray, arranging them in a visually pleasing manner.
Allow the adhesive to cure according to the manufacturer’s instructions, ensuring a secure hold.
Once the adhesive has set, place candles or LED tea lights on the base (now the top) of each candlestick.
For added flair, drape decorative beads or garland around the candlesticks.
Variations & Tips
To customize your upside-down candlestick centerpiece, consider experimenting with different styles and finishes of candlesticks. Use metallic finishes for a glamorous look, or opt for wooden candlesticks for a rustic feel. You can also paint the candlesticks in a color that complements your existing décor. For a seasonal touch, swap out the candles for themed colors, like pastel for spring or deep reds and greens for the holidays. Adding small decorative elements like faux flowers or seasonal ornaments can further enhance the centerpiece’s appeal.
