step one Remove labels from bottles (ours are from Trader Joe's sparkling pomegranate juice) by soaking in warm, soapy water and using the scrubbing side of the sponge to eliminate remaining residue. step two Use a dull knife to whittle away at the base of the taper candles so they fit snugly into the tops of the glass bottles. step three Wrap a length of Spanish moss loosely around the top of the bottle to camoflouge the area where the twist cap screws onto.
