Creating a Candle Garden

A candle garden is essentially a group of candles put together in a cluster, on top of something, such as a decorative plate. You put your candles together on it, and then arrange other items around the base. This is a great centerpiece for a table, on a mantle place, or anywhere else you want to put some interest.

You will want to get pillar candles in a variety of heights to give your garden some interest. Votives will also work nicely, and you could put in a few tealights depending on the look you are going for.

Variations:
Fill a planter with votives, and make it look like the votives are “growing”
Holiday version – have the items on the base be holiday related
Group holders together, and tie them together with the base decorations
