| Apple Votives |
|
| |
| A flotilla of apples bobbing in a steel tub evokes memories of childhood and headlong plunges
into icy water. But carved into holiday candleholders, these apple votives are a prize for the eyes alone, their flames a
promise of warmth. Every apple will float differently, so see how they balance in water before marking their topsides with
a dot. Place the tea light over the dot, and trace around its circumference with a utility knife, inserting the knife vertically
as deep as the tea light is tall. Set aside the light, cut the circle into sections, and scoop them out with a spoon. Squeeze
lemon juice onto the cut surface to keep the apple from turning brown, and insert a tea light. |
