    Default bundled candle arrangement



    Bundled Candles
    Light up the evening with this bright grouping of candles. It's easy to pull together this unusual centerpiece in a hurry.

    What You Need:

    This is a safe way to brighten
    any table.

    Footed hurricane vase (available at housewares or home-decor stores)

    8 to 10 dripless silver candles with flat bottoms (not shaped)

    Sheer blue ribbon


    Instructions:
    1. Bundle enough candles to fit inside vase and tie them together tightly with ribbon bow.

    2. Stand candles in vase. Make sure ribbon will be well away from flames. Never leave burning candles unattended.

    More Ideas:
    Use different colors of candles and ribbon to fit any decor or occasion.

    Candles should not touch the sides of the vase.

    I don't think so. I actually thought when I saw the one they did that the candles should be above the vase.

    Yours looks awesome!

    I like it with the candles above the vase too.

    Your's is very nice Carolyn,. If only I had seen this when it was originally posted I could have used that idea for some light when we were without power a few weeks ago.
