This is my Advent candle arrangement for this year ~ my napkin tin has been repurposed, I put some floral foam in the bottom,
pushed in my candles,
covered the foam with some moss I found in the woods,
then topped it off with some evergreen sprigs, also from the woods,
and some rose hips from my rose bush.
{I've had trouble finding pink and purple tapers, so just used some white ones instead.}
