I was recently invited to a birthday dinner for a dear and close friend whom I have known for over twenty years. It was sort of a last minute thing. Her sister sent me a text message asking me to call her, which I did. She said she was planning a dinner to be held on a Sunday evening at a local restaurant and wanted me to attend. I told her I would be delighted. I didn't want to show up empty handed, so I ran out to pick up a quick gift. I did not know exactly what I was looking for but that was quickly remedied when I found these candles.
These did not come in a pack of four. They were just all on a shelf together with many other candles. I chose these four because 1.) I thought that would be a good number to give, 2.) I liked all of these scents, ... and 3.) they all fit perfectly in the gift bag I chose!!
I thought this gift bag was rather cute and colorful and like I said, it was the perfect size to hold the four candles I chose.
White tissue for this gift bag. You can never go wrong with white tissue. White or black will always work in any situation. I was in a particular hurry and I just did not have time to coordinate the color of the tissue with one or more of the colors in the bag.
In with the candles.
And a little "zhuzhing" with the tissue to give it a festive look and I was off to the ball.
My friend told me later that she loved the candles and that she burns a candle nearly every night when she gets home from work. I did not know that. Maybe I knew it subconsciously. Who knows. In any event, I'm glad I chose these as her gift and I'm glad that she liked them. I'm sure any one of your friends would be equally as happy with a similar gift of candles.
