VELLUM LUMINARIES

You'll need 8 1/2-by-11 sheets of vellum paper in the color of your choice, chopsticks, and 7-day candles in glass vessels (sold at supermarket). Sandwich the candles between 2 sheets of vellum, clipping the sheets together with 2 sets of unseparated wooden chopsticks 1 inch from edges.

CLASSIC LUMINARIES

You'll need paper sandwich bags in the color of your choice, kitty litter for weight, and battery tea light candles (sold at michael's). Fill the sandwich bags with a cup of kitty litter, light or place the candle inside the sandwich bag.

Luminaries are always welcoming and add a bit of warmth to your party.
