I started with a hurricane candle trio that I've had for several years. I am using faux battery operated candles that are made from real wax. They have a realistic look without the danger of fire.
I used jute twine

I put one leaf on each side of my candles (since they will be sitting in the center of my table I wanted a leaf to show from each side). I held the leaves down while twisting the twine around the center of the candle three times. Then I tied the twine in a knot centered on one of the leaves. Last I cut the twine ends so it wasn't hanging too long.

I did the same process on all three of my candles. Here is what they look like now. I love how something so simple adds so much color and charm to these beauties!

I placed the glass hurricanes back over them and now they are ready to go. The glass creates a glare on the photo, but you get the idea.

I will be able to use these candles throughout the entire Fall season. I will add pine cones, a few birch branches and more leaves down the center of the table for our Thanksgiving family gathering. When I do, I will be sure to share more pictures :)
Blessings,
Diana
