How to create a romantic candle arrangement

If you want to surprise your special someone with a candlelit dinner, you may want to consider going beyond lighting a candle in the center of the table and consider creating an arrangement that will take their breath away. Although it may seem like a lot more work to create a breathtaking arrangement of romantic candles, the truth is that there are many simple ways to turn a few candles into a work of art. The following are just a few romantic candle arrangements that you may want to try your hand out.

For an elegant candle arrangement that can serve as a centerpiece for a birthday or anniversary celebration, consider purchasing six or seven silver or blue pillar candles. (If it is an anniversary celebration you should purchase pillar candles in your wedding colors). Bunch the candles into a loose bundle and tie a sheer ribbon around them in a complimentary color. Place them inside a wide pillar vase and you have a piece of art that will illuminate the table perfectly.

If you are trying to capture romance in the bathroom or bedroom, you may want to consider creating an ecliptic arrangement by purchasing a variety of small container candles. Gold, clear, and bronze containers create a soft elegant ambience for the room and the different sizes and shapes of the containers will naturally attract the eye and radiate class. For an extra bonus, you can even toss in some ribbon around the containers or add a few decorative glass balls into the arrangement.

Another simple arrangement can take the place of flowers on the dining room table when your date walks in. This romantic arrangement is aptly named a candle bouquet and will surely take the breath away of your special guest. To create a candle bouquet, simply take a wide flower vase and fill the bottom of it with sand. This works best if the bottom of the vase is thin and the top is thick and wide. Place about ten to twelve pillar candles inside spread out like a fan and light for a stunning affect.
