I this listing is for one luminary, you choose size and style.

offer my handmade luminary bags in 3 sizes. Mini, small and medium. Medium are closest to a traditional luminary bag size but still slightly smaller. This is the largest I can go with the book page style because books are smaller in nature and harder to make larger sizes due to the limits of the dimensions of book pages. Luminaries are used to line aisles and create pathways. They’re also used as table centerpieces for parties, events and weddings. My luminaries are safe and flameless. Since they are only recommended for use with fake battery operated led candles they are safe for wedding venues and homes.

None of my listings come with the led candles but I do sell them separately in my shop. You can find them inexpensive at local craft stores (michaels, joann fabrics, dollar tree) I recommend the tealite or votive size.

All of my luminaries only have cutouts on the front sides of the bags so keep this in mind when coming up with your décor plan. This is how luminaries are traditionally made. They illuminate much better this way, and visually look nicer when you don’t see through to the other side.

Mini are $8 each bag and approx. dimensions are 4”high, 3”wide, 1.5”deep handheld petit size
Small are $12 each bag and approx. dimensions are 6”high, 3.5”wide, 1.5”deep
Medium are $18 each bag and approx. dimensions are 7-8”high, 5”wide, 1.5”deep (closest to a traditional luminary bag size but still smaller because book pages size of pages is much smaller than maps or sheet music)

If you’d like a custom package of various sizes feel free to message me, I would be happy to create a custom order for you. Since everything is handmade by me alone and made to order I have lead times. Thank you for your patience. Lead time on 1-2 bags is 2 weeks, lead time on 5-10 bags is 3 weeks, larger packages and wedding orders have a lead time of 2 months.
