Our little festival community held a Candlemas celebration today. The beautiful temperatures of yesterday continued into today and it turned into a lovely celebration of the return of light to our day as well as the promise of coming spring.
Our Candlemas celebration this year was a little different, although no less special, than last year's. We decided to roll candles this year to make our Candlemas candles.
Our next station was a candle decorating station with Stockmar decorating wax.
We ended up with candles filled with so much unique creativity.
The next station was a paper-candle-holder-making station.
The 4-pointed paper candle holders turned out adorably without being too complex for the children to make in a group.
Of course, we had a baby station as well, on the warm, sunny porch, filled with music and singing.
What a lovely way to kick off the week of Candlemas!

ReplyDeleteLooks like so much fun! I'll just be making French Candlemas crepes this year, but next year, we'll have to put something like this together.
ReplyDeleteHaving the ability to buy craft kit wholesale in bulk is a massive boon for shops like mine. It's great to offer our clients a broad choice of creative projects thanks to our access to a wide array of bulk-priced crafting supplies and kits. We can better serve our crafty clientele and keep our prices low by purchasing wholesale craft kits.
