For a truly unique centerpiece idea, create enchanted worlds of light as the softness of pastels and the glimmer of metal come together in candle sleeves and a runner of sheer metallic fabric. The little bags dress up votives, while the sleek glass cylinders filled with water hold floating candles. The runner makes a stunning backdrop for any celebratory centerpiece. Fill them with water and floating candles, then veil them with the gossamer colors of our Iridescent Sleeves. By Illuminations.com
