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.
