candle passing ideas!

[XEbabypanda]

so my best friend just recieved a lavalier from her boyfriend (EXCITING!!) and now im in charge, along with her big, of decorating a candle for her candle passing! the candle she got from her big at the candle passing for big/little reveal was sooo perfect, but now we dont want to reuse any of those elements in this candle (it had purple ribbon and purple flowers with little pearls). any ideas or suggestions? we're stumped!!

Most girls on my campus would order their candle from a florist. It would be a tall, slim candle surrounded by a a ring of flowers at the base. It made for a really pretty candle pass. Good luck!

at my daughter's candlepass, her big took upholstery studs(brown) and created her monogram in script on the candle with them. she also took pink/brown/white striped narrow grosgrain ribbon and glued it on around the candle about 1 inch below the top of the candle and 1 inch from the bottom. it was very classy looking. i can't remember if she used my daughter current monogram or her future one-this was for an engagement.

in my day we did not decorate the candles used in the candle passes, but we had someone create a fancy sign that we put up to announce there would be a candlepass that night after dinner.
