  • Vincent Hook:

    Floating candles always look elegant, but may not be a good idea with teens or even legal in your setting.

    Anything that reflects light like colored marbles in clear or red
    in tall vases with a single flower or small fish bowl type with one single floating flower in each.

    Ask for donations of clear bud vases from students’ moms. Everyone has spares of those. Tie a black ribbon around each vase to give them an elegant black tie look.

    Or just put food coloring in the water (red if that’s your choice)
    and add a single flower. See if someone has flowers that are getting dated and buy those up because you will only need for them to stay fresh for that day.

    Start with small pine tree branches and embellish with cranberries, a few flowers and candles. Star dust can also be added, you can find it at any craft store, it is a refined sparkle, just sprinkle it where needed, for that little extra. Good luck!
