Craft a decorative candle
wreath, and make your christmas dinner table very special. Just remember
to use your creativity and add your personal touches of gold and other
natural colors that will glow in this table centerpiece. Remember that
the lit candles should never touch the wreath, so from the time you lit
the candles, make sure you are always present. Now, lets get on with this
beautiful arrangement. You will need the following things:
- Four
Gold-colored (or paint them gold) candles.
- Florist'
wire
- Strong
Glue
- Hydrangea
head
- Tiny
Gold baubles
- Berries,
or rose hip

Twist two lengths
of wire around the base of each candle, leaving double ends of wire projecting
downwards. Spear these wires firmly into the foam ring, spacing the candles
evenly. |
| Stick nuts to the
foam in attractive groups. Use your creativity and sense of beauty. Try
with different styles. |
|
 |
Add clusters of
cones between the nuts. Twist wires around the base of cones that have no
stalks, or use strong glue to stick them in place. |
Fill spaces in the
ring with hydrangea flower-ets. You can also use other flowerets if you
want. Just make sure that they suit your arrengement.
Stick the florets in place firmly with glue .
Add baubles and berries as finishing touches. You can also add your personal
touches here. |

Now your Candle
Wreath is ready to be placed in the center of your christmas dinner table.
Remember to keep an eye over the candles when they are burning, and extinguish
then before the heat reaches the base. Use a yellowish table cloth to suit
the decoration. |
