Having candles drop out too quick on ya sucks. I made some as bunco prizes back in December, and was finishing them up a couple of hours before the game, and there one of them went, right on the floor. Nice huge dent in it. I still had to give it since I had no other prize, but at least this was to a friend and she didn't care anyway. She was like, I'm just going to burn it anyway. Hope you got things delivered in time.
