the one item i'm glad i didn't get off etsy

we need a unity candle for the ceremony and i searched on etsy because i didn't want a plain one. Well, it still was going to cost me about $45-50 dollars including shipping. For something that takes up about 5 minutes of the entire day, that bugged me.

So, on a trip to Michael's to get some paper and labels, I aimlessly (yes, since i have SOOO much free time these days) browsed the candles aisle and put together my own unity candle set.

Candles: $2.00 for the tapers, $3.50 for the pillar.

Wreath: $5.99

Ribbon: Leftover from programs, would've just pitched it anyway.

Holders: $3.00 for each small one, $6.00 for the large one.

Conclusion: I will never doubt Michael's Craft store again. Thank you for saving me 50%.
