Fancy Fair Trade Trinkets

11/02/2013      Leave a Comment

I’ve been doing some research recently for pretty decorations and tea light holders that I could use as wedding decorations. Obviously I want something pretty because it’s my wedding but I don’t want anything too “weddingy” because I want to use them in the house afterwards. Dilemma, no?

tea lights

 

Not any more!! I have found some of the most gorgeous tea light holders and vases known to man. Do you think I’ll get a discount if buy in bulk?

These gorgeous embossed glass tea light holders are made from recycled glass and are fairly traded from India. So they’re room friendly and conscious friendly too!

They come in navy or silver and as a set of three, so really that’s only £4 each! I think I’m a bigger fan of the navy coloured ones than I am of the silver. Although, these next ones are silver and I really love them.

I think these are my favourite when it comes to wedding table decorations though. Using one as a vase and the other two as tea light holders is lovely. Maybe I could add the navy tea light holders above too to mix it up and get more candle light…. there’ll be no space for plates at this rate!

Hyacinth Bulb Vases

Finally, I really love the colours these hyacinth bulb vases come in. Maybe not as useful as a wedding decoration but definitely one I’ll be keeping in mind for Mother’s Day as it approaches. I’m pretty sure these would be equally great tipped upside down and used as a cut flower vase too or maybe an interesting sweetie dish.

Either way I’m pretty pleased I stumbled across Fair Wind, I’ve got all those birthday presents for awkward aunts completely sorted thanks to them!

Kisses
