((I got this from a mailing list I am on. I have made them before, but never with candle rings.))
Double Decker Ivy Bowl Candle holder
(this is gorgeous and can be changed quickly for different holidays and seasons)
Materials:
2 - Clear glass Ivy Bowls
1 - clear votive candle holder (must be able to fit inside the ivy bowl)
1 - sm. votive candle ring (or 3 - 5 small floweral picks bunched together)
1 - votive candle (any color - to match flowers)
about 18 inches - narrow ribbon in one or two different colors matching your flowers
*super glue (I used hot glue or clear cement glue on mine.)
Instructions:
Glue the two ivy bowls bottom sides together. You have to put glue around the outside edge of the bottom because of the slite dip in the bowls bottom. When your done one will be on top of other. In the bottom ivy bowl stick your votive candle ring up in it. In the top ivy bowl very carefully set your votive cup (if your not careful you'll crack the ivy bowl when you set it down in--don't let it drop down in real hard). Put candle in the votive cup.
