Things You'll Need:
- Tall glass vessel
- Votive candle
- Stem flower
- Ribbon
- Saucer
-
Step 1
You will need a tall glass vessel, such as a hurricane or slender vase, a votive or pillar candle that fits inside your hurricane, a square candle holder or small dish with a lip, a single-stem flower and some thin ribbon or raffia. I recommend using garden roses for a romantic atmosphere or sunflowers and dahlias (pictured) for a casual ambience. You should be able to find these materials at a local crafts store such as Michaels, Target or Wal-Mart.

Step 2
Place the candle inside the glass vessel. The height of the candle should not matter too much as long as it is shorter than the vessel.
-
Step 3
Cut a single flower so that it is the same height as the vessel. Tie the stem to the vessel using a matching ribbon or raffia.
-
Step 4
Fill the small saucer with a bit of water for the flower (you can also use a large candle holder vase for this purpose too).
