The past two weeks I've been working on a confidential design job that I can finally write about. I've been designing projects for Aqua-Gems using their products--Aqua Gems Liquid Marbles and BrightSPOT Submersible LED Accent Lights. A number of the design projects I've created will be used in a large retail craft/fabric store account that Aqua-Gems has, but I've been given the green light to showcase them on my blog too!
The first is a lighted centerpiece I've named "Carnation Parfait". Here are the steps on how to assembly one for yourself.
Materials list:
1 parfait or sundae glass (I got mine at a restaurant supply store)
1 drinking straw
1 BrightSPOT light (I used pink)
1 package of Aqua Gems Liquid Marbles (I used pink)
6 standard carnations in a color matching the Aqua Gems you use
2 white standard carnations
1 artificial red cherry or cranberry on a pick wire (from craft store)
Directions:
1) Turn on the BrightSPOT and slide the drinking straw over the bulb of the light (see photos below)
2) Place a small amount of hydrated Aqua Gems Liquid Marbles in bottom of parfait glass and nest BrightSPOT in Aqua Gems (see photo below)
3) Fill the parfait glass full of Aqua Gems Liquid Marbles
4) Position straw just to the right or left of center
5) Cut the carnation stems to 3-4 inches in length
6) Arrange 6 colored carnations in a circle around entire rim of parfait glass (let edges of carnations hang over the edge of glass)
7) Place 2 white carnations in top center (re-position straw if needed)
8) Place cherry on top by sliding pick wire down into center
And you're ready to "serve"!
