In the previous two Wednesday posts, we’ve covered decorating a candle as well as how to make one. This post explores various types of candleholders.
If you have floating candles, you can place them in any container that holds sufficient water for the candle to float. Glass is very reflective and rocks, colored glass stones can rest on the bottom. Shallow containers, surrounded by greens are very pretty. Safety first. Make sure potential flammable items, such as dried flowers, are not in close proximity to lit candles. There are flameless candles that can be placed in water.
I live where there are lots of birch trees. Over the summer, birch limbs and even sections of trees that have fallen are collected. Create a flat side-use a planer-then drill holes slightly larger than the size of the candle. Tea lights and votives work well, as do some taper candles.
