Materials

Preparation
  1. Ensure that your tray is clean and dry. If using a wooden tray, sand it lightly for a smoother surface.

Assembly
  1. Once satisfied with the arrangement, use the hot glue gun to secure each glass gem in place.
  2. Position your LED candles in the center of the tray among the glass gems.
  3. If using sea shells or sand, sprinkle them around the edges of the tray for an extra touch of beach charm.
  4. Allow everything to set for a few minutes before displaying.

Notes

Aim for a harmonious mix of colors; ensure the tray is placed on a flat surface. Use sufficient adhesive to secure gems, and clean gems before use.
