Medieval Wine Bottle Candles

When I was a kid, I would sit in church and stare at all of the beautiful candles, stained glass and statuary...I rarely paid attention to what the priest was saying.  Let's just say our priest had a knack for putting people to sleep.  I always thought he lived IN the actual church and that one day I would like to live in a church without the pews and maybe with a few more rooms.  Well, I don't live in a church, but I am still obsessed with stained glass, statuary AND candles.  To date, this is my best attempt at recreating the beautiful metal edged candles I stared at during the longest hour of my week for the first 15 years of my life.  The best part is that I also got to drink the wine!  Also part of the Sunday communion tradition but taken to a new level.  Enjoy, my fabulous friends, and don't forget to 
MAKE YOUR MARK!
