Advent wreath!!!!!!!!! Help!

[manveersihota]

Well as everyone must know, advent is soon upon us and again, I am making the wreath this year. However there’s one slight problem, I can’t use candles and electric candles are too expensive. What do you guys suggest? There must be something else I can do to the wreath to commemorate advent. Please reply, your help is most valuable.

God Bless!

How about and advent calendar instead?

You don’t have to light them… just have the symbol there as a reminder of the season - and say the prayers as if you were lighting them…

The calendar idea is good too!

I work at a Catholic Supply store, and we have plush advent wreaths like the one in this link. Maybe this would work.

at the dollar store I got 4 electric tea lites for $2 total, and 4 stemmed glasses, $2 total, a green artificial wreath, $1, and 4 bows, $1 total, plus a green and gold placemat to set it on, $1. tape the bows to the glass stems, and I am good to go, for less than the cost of a wreath with 4 colored candles in a religious gift catalog or store.
