I love these Celebration Candles


My daughter's "Hang 10" beach/luau themed party was a ton of fun for many reasons including our friends and the great location (Jellystone Campground). There are so many things I could highlight but I'm going to focus on my favorite feature of this party...the birthday cake topped with these magnificent 15 inch tall candles. I have been dying to use these Celebration Candles since I first found them and they did not disappoint!

The cake was a masterpiece in it own right, created by Dyan Larson and Sandi Meinsen from Desserts First Bakery in Eau Claire, WI. The flamboyant sherbet orange icing and giant bright hibiscus flowers on a simplistic round cake served on a pedestal was the perfect platform for these fabulous candles.

I love that these candles flirt between fun and frivolous and classy and elegant and no one can deny the "wow power" of Celebration Candles. The "larger than life" feel evokes the same emotion in the guest of honor. It amazes me how one simple touch can add so much character and flair to a party. These candles are the essence of Casual Panache.
