Centerpiece help

I’m making my own centerpieces for my November beauty and the beast wedding! I need help hiding the battery pack. Any ideas?? Would it look silly/stupid to put the battery pack inside and tie a ribbon around it?

    We’ve used these from amazon and the base is super small and easy to hide.

    This is VERY pretty! What a great idea for centerpieces! You could paint the bottom and the battery pack then place flower petals on the bottom to make them look like they are falling. That way you wouldn't need to return the lights if you don't want to. Everyone's ideas on here are great! So good luck!

    Thank you!! My fiancé actually just told me something similar. To put black felt/cloth at the bottom to cover the battery pack. And I really like the idea of gluing the rose petals on top of it. Unfortunately the battery pack is really big and noticeable, I’m not sure just painting it would work. I am going to get some more on amazon that have a smaller battery pack and maybe I can use these for something else

    Yes! I just got a set exactly like this, except warm white and the stand is only 3 ft instead of 7

    Annette that is so great that you were able to get the ones that were a little shorter! The longer ones could maybe be used on the tables, the battery pack hiding under some floral or something that you will like? I bet there is something that you can use those other lights for! Definitely would love to see photos of what you come up with!

    I looked at moss too! I’m getting lights with a smaller battery pack, and I’m gonna see what it looks like with rose petals on it. If not, j may end up doing moss

    If the other ideas dont work, it might be good to attach it to the side of the bottom and cover it with ribbon/a bow.

    This kind of reminds me of ours for our Disney themed wedding.

    I believe mine is hidden within the wood and I would do that if possible Smiley smile

    It came this way they were about $10 each but the etsy listing was taken down I tried clicking the seller's page and their entire page was shut down. Smiley sad I wish I could send the link but etsy has a lot of other options. however, i think yours already came out beautifully and the battery could be hidden under the wood.

    Oh dang! Yea I saw a lot of them on Etsy too, but they were $40-50 each and for 10-11 tables, I couldn’t afford that. Smiley sad and thank you! I really like them! We were going to try to hide it in the wood but I don’t have anything to cut the wood with and I’m too nervous to use a saw. I got lights with a smaller battery pack and it looks super nice under the rose petals!
