There are so many different ways of creating candlelight. I found just a few examples in our house:
The bee's wax can be rolled into sheets or wicks can be dipped...
These candles are just little tea lights placed in handmade holders. All were made for weddings: birch branches from the family home and old fence posts found around Lethbridge.
A well-made candle can light your way or provide light to read...
Some candles don't even need a match to start the glow...
A candle today is probably lit to set a mood or to give extra meaning to a ceremony. Mostly, their flames flicker quietly. But as we all know, for sheer excitement and wonder, you can't beat birthday candles!

Oh my gosh!!! That's Theo, Alex and ME!!!!! We were so darn cute! What happened?!?
Even though they're expensive, I light candles every day. I light several in the winter to help chase away the dark.
I love the tea lights in the bark, and particularly the idea of using bark from a family tree at a wedding.
In my yoga class, we have occasionally done a bit of candle gazing- it is so soothing and so relaxing!
