DIY Garter & Bow Tie Votives

The March issue of Fayette Woman Magazine was all about weddings. In my article, I shared how to make these easy DIY garter and bow tie votives. They would be great if you are hosting a bridal shower, or at the rehearsal dinner, or reception.

For the garter, measure and cut a piece of lace ribbon to fit around the votive. The ribbon I used also had a row of beads. Attach with E6000.

Glue a ribbon flower to the center of the lace ribbon.

 The ribbon and the flower are both from the bridal section at Michael's.

For the bow tie votive, measure and cut a piece of black ribbon to fit around a votive. Attach with E6000.

 Cut a piece of black felt 1.5 inches by 1.25 inches. Fold in half, then cut a triangle from the outside corners toward the center of the felt.

Glue the felt onto the black ribbon using E6000.

Add a rhinestone to the center of the bow tie in a coordination color to the garter.

 Next, just add candles!
