What's the best way to light a glass vase from the inside without wires?
I have this really nice large glass vase. It was an unusual centerpiece at a wedding I went to. From what I can tell, the bride covered regular long glass vases (for sunflowers or other long plants) and covered them in numerous pieces of blue glass/plexiglass/plastic, giving them that crackle over plain glass look I've seen on a lot of vases in stores. At the wedding, they had these little led keychain lights, almost like keychains, lighting the vases (as well as strategically placed candles nearby), but the LEDs burn out and the candles aren't practical every day.
Also from the wedding are these beautifully branches painted silver that are held in the vase. With proper soft light, these silver branches would like really beautiful. I'd like to find a permanent soft light to create a glow (preferably blue) emanating from the vase, but without wires or constantly replacing batteries. What sorts of lights are reasonable priced, small enough to fit in a vase, and not super bright.
There are flickering candle bases that are actually battery powered. They come in a lot of styles. These are safer, more practical and still pretty. If you cannot find a blue one (I know I have seen them in a catalog recently with all of the holiday shopping going on), you could always try a craft or even aquarium store for blue glass gravel. You could place those around the flameless candle and it should cast a very pretty glow.
Enjoy!
