Garnished Pillar Candle
• Bowl container (or a platter or tray)
• Pillar candle, any color or height
• 9-12 small lemons or tangerines
• 7-10 small artichokes or limes


Set a pillar candle into the center of your bowl. Secure it with florist putty or candle wax tabs if necessary.

Make two rows of fruit or vegetables around the candle. Small items will work best. We've chosen some baby artichokes and some very small lemons, but tangerines, limes, or any other item could also work.
