Help with floating candle centerpieces

Maybe some glass beads at the bottom if you're using stemmed flowers?

View Quoted Comment Yeah I got some fake diamonds to use at the bottom. The roses I got have a stem, but the stem is thick and green and I don’t like how it looks... maybe it would work if I hot glued the bottom of the stem to my vase filler to weigh it down?

I found this on Pinterest you can cover the washers with glass beads. Hope this helps!

View Quoted Comment Omg this DOES help! Thanks so much

View Quoted Comment No problem! 😊

View Quoted Comment I was thinking hot glue the stem but if you want to cut off the stem you could string fishing line through the flower and hot glue to the bottom.

Hot gluing may not work if it's submerged. I've found glue tends to come off in chunks at any major temperature change. I would a glass or clear plastic floral plate(you can find them in your craft store or floral supply warehouse) that is just wide enough to go into your container and large enough to shove the flowers back down and then submerge it. It should disappear into your water.

I got another question! Are real flowers easier to submerge in water than artificial flowers? Or is there a good reputable brand of artificial flowers that anyone can recommend?

Thanks!!
