 Directions

DECORATE WITH CANDLES

5). Candle arrangements in unusual containers can be creatively unique.
Use items you have around your home. Try votive candles in fluted molds,
saucer type champagne glasses, muffin pans or on inverted clay flower pots
in clay saucers; surround with brightly colored ribbons, jingle bells,
small shiny tree ornaments or pine cones. Florist clay or candles "stickem"
can be used to secure the candles.
6). Winter wonderland: Candles can be used to create an illusion of
moonlight on snow covered boughs. Place white or ivory candles of various
heights in glass holders. Group and surround them with snow-flocked
evergreens. Intertwine metalic colored ribbons around candle holders. Use
crystal angles or trees for a touch of fantasy. For a doubly beautiful
effect, arrange grouping on a mirrored background to catch and reflect the
light.
7). Paper-Bag Luminaries: Can be made using small paper bags, plain or
colored, sand and votive candles. Bags can be decorated by cutting out
holes with scissors or paper punches, but make sure they are small so that
the wind cannot put the candles out. Fold top of each bag down about 2" for
added strength. Put about 2" of sand in each bag. Place candle in the
center of the bag, making sure it does not touch edges; light the candle.
Place 3-6' apart on edge of sidewalks, driveways and steps. Do not place
near dry leaves or shrubbery.
