Bridal Shower Candle Basket

Has anyone ever made a candle basket for a bridal shower? The one that has the poem with it? If so, would you mind sharing your pictures because I want to make one fot my maid of honor's bridal shower. Also, if anyone is willing to make it for me bc I am soooo bad at these things lol I would be willing to pay them! If so, please fm me and let me know. Thanks!!

Re: Bridal Shower Candle Basket

it is very easy to do.

heres the poem all you have to do is go to michaels get a nice basket, then get the color candles that it says too...u can even try dollar tree for the candles

A Basket of Candles
For 'bride name'

A basket of candles That come in a pair
In all different colors, For you two to share
The white ones burn first
They are wrapped in white lace
To celebrate your first married night
In your new chosen place
The green pair is taller, and also much thinner
Burn with the first company, you have over for dinner
The dark blue candles are for after your first fight
Use them to burn while making up all night
Pink candles set the mood and pave the way
For your first married Valentine’s Day
Now, when your first year of marriage is through
The cream anniversary pair, will light for you two.
Red candles aflame, both your futures are bright.
Celebrate promotions you’ve worked toward with all of your might.
By this time we hope, maybe, just maybe
You can light the purple ones, on the birth of your baby,
And just when you thought, you’d put these away
Take the light blue ones out-for your fifth anniversary day.
Now just one more pair left-for the big 2 5
The anniversary pair that will keep your love alive
Congratulations bride and groom (enter names)
On the start of your forever
May the two of you always be happy together
And burn these candles
Just the way we said
But please don’t forget-blow them out before bed!

With love,
Your bridal party

Re: Bridal Shower Candle Basket

Hi, I have seen it sold in Port Jeff at the 'Grapes' store. I just had my bridal shower this past weekend and they did it with wine bottles. The holiday... first fight, wedding night etc... If you are really interested in the wine I will spend the time to post for you. Otherwise good luck with the candles. You can callthe store to see how much.
