Candle Tips You just can't have too many candles. They come in so many shapes, sizes, colors, and scents that they make the perfect decorating accessory for any decor! Having trouble getting tapers to stand straight in a sconce? Simply take a glue gun (one with a low setting) and squeeze a small amount of glue into the bottom of the holder. After a second or two, stick the candle in and hold it straight until the glue dries enough to hold it in place. Here's another idea! Do you have an odd shaped planter such as the great Fire King on this page? Use florist foam and tape to top of planter. Then arrange a taper in the center with flowers and foliage surrounding- or try Rosemary sprigs, Lemon Leaves and limes (use the stems to stick the limes in and anchor the whole arrangement.) Just take care that the taper is positioned so that you won't burn the foliage- or don't burn the wick. When your arrangement is to your liking, just add water to the bottom of the container until the florist foam is saturated. Your arrangement will look and smell great!
