Variety in my centerpieces???

 

I am creating my own centerpieces for my wedding but my question is…. is it ok to have a different centerpiece on each table? or should I do the same one on each table, I think that just seems kind of boring . I want each one to have some kind of candle just maybe like floating candles on one, pillar candles on another, etc.

how do you use the come to me 7 day glass candle?

 

What is the easiest and safest way to get old candle wax out of a votive candle holder?

 

I obviously don’t want to break the candle holder. But there is wax in the bottom from each of the candles that I have burnt in it. You can only burn a candle down so far, and then it won’t burn anymore. This is what is left over from the candles. But I want to clean the holder out, so I can burn new ones and not have this left over wax keep building up over time. What do you suggest? I only want tried and true methods that you guys have used yourselves with positive results. Because I don’t want to end up messing my candle holder up. Thank you!

Does any one know of any good candle websites for a wedding?

Centerpiece holders?

 

I need your creativity! We are having a Christmas wedding and the centerpieces were suppose to be a clear bowls filled with a red pillar candle, shiny Christmas bulbs and pine but I am having a heck of a time finding the right bowls. Can you think of something creative to use instead of bowls? Keep in mind that it can’t be too elaborate because I need 35 of them and I would like them to be less than .00 a container.

Thanks in advance!

How do I remove smoke damage on a wall caused by candles???

 

I had some candles on my dresser and a week later I noticed the smoke damage. So I tried to wipe it off with a sponge, just a dry one, it didn’t do anything, so I tried to wet it down to clean and now it has just spread. How do I fix it? Or should I just paint over it?
Is Mean Green sold everywhere? Or do I have to buy it online?

Can I use drinking glasses as home-made candle containers?

 

I want to start making my own candles and was wondering if I could use heavier drinking glasses for containers to pour the wax in? The wax is poured at about 200 degrees. Will this break most drinking glasses? Does anybody know what type of glass I should look for that has a high heat resistance? What if it DOESN’T break, is there a risk it will break once I lit the candle?
