Floating candles - how to mix fire
and water in the nicest possible way
The idea of mixing Fire and Water
doesn't seem logical at first - unless, of course, you're using
floating candles. Then it all makes sense.
Floating candles can be either poured or pressed. The poured
ones can often be a better buy, as they are dense and burn for
a long time. Check the maker's description to see what kind
they offer....
Short glass cylinders are ideal containers for floating
candles. If you don't have glass cylinders, what about using
cut-glass wineglasses, or even water glasses? If you're luck
enough to have crystal that can add a shimmering touch, so much
the better.
Do you have any large, shallow bowls? Brass or copper
is great, so is silver, and a large glass bowl will also work
well. If the bowl is large enough, think about mixing flowers
and floating candles.
