Elegant Wedding Table Decorations using Glitter Paint

There’s no need to spend a fortune on beautiful wedding decor if you’re willing to DIY a little. Get creative with glitter paint to make elegant wedding table decorations such as these glittering votive candles and framed table numbers.

Romantic Glittering Wedding Table Decorations

Although it’s been years since I’ve planned my wedding, I do remember all the creative ways I DIYed through my special day. From making my own wedding invitations to sewing dresses for my maid of honor to all the decorations for the hall, with some effort and little cost I was able to make my wedding day elegant and personal without spending a fortune.

Adding touches of glitter to wedding table decorations is a simple way to incorporate pops of color and some sparkle.

For the frame, I used Galaxy Glitter paint from Decoart and paired it with a beachy turquoise acrylic paint. With an enormous selection of acrylic paint colors, there’s undoubtedly one to match your wedding color scheme. And for a more subtle glitter effect, I used only the Galaxy Glitter in a gold color over the glass votive holders.

How to Make Elegant Wedding Table Decorations:

Materials Needed for Making Glittering Table Number Picture Frames:

• Paintable picture frame, 4×6
• DecoArt Americana Acrylics in Desert Turquoise
• DecoArt Galaxy Glitter in Aqua Meteor
• Paintbrush

Instructions for Making a Glittering Table Number Picture Frame:

Remove the picture and glass insert from the frame and put aside until later.

Paint the picture frame using Decoart Americana Acrylics in desert turquoise and leave it to dry fully before continuing.

Once dry, apply another coat of paint and then repeat as needed to achieve desired coverage. It’s best to allow paint to dry fully before moving on to the next steps.

Shake the bottle of Galaxy Glitter well before painting. Apply one thick layer of Galaxy Glitter paint in aqua meteor over top of the painted picture frame.

Once dry, apply another coat of glitter and repeat as needed to achieve desired coverage. 

Make as many picture frames as needed for your wedding venue. Print numbers on 4×6 sized paper and insert into the reassembled picture frame.

Materials Needed for Making Glittering Candle Votive Holders:

• Glass candle votive holders
• DecoArt Galaxy Glitter in Champagne Stardust
• Paintbrush

Instructions for Making Glittering Candle Votive Holders:

Shake the bottle of Galaxy Glitter well before painting. Apply a thick layer of glitter paint with a medium sized brush to the lower half of the glass votive using Decoart Galaxy Glitter in champagne stardust.

Once dry, apply another coat of glitter and repeat as needed to achieve desired coverage.

That’s all it takes to make these elegant wedding table decorations! These candle votive holders and picture frames would also make lovely gifts or bonbonieres for your guests.

Or alternatively, you can reuse them in your own home decor like I did with my rustic elegant fall mantel. Don’t they look romantic and pretty?
