Candles?

I kind of have my centerpiece idea done. Only problem is that the candles I used for it are two tone candles and I can't find them anywhere. The candles are light green on top and a darker green on bottom. Do you possibly know where to find two tone candles in these colors or close to it?    Thanks to my mom for putting together the stuff I liked to make this.  : )

    Are you a DIY kind of person?  If so, you can use dye or crayons to make them.  Otherwise, I have no idea.  A couple of my local stores have candles like that.  But I don't think you want to come to North Dakota to get them.

    Amazon?
    Michaels?
    Hobby Lobby?

    Just because you saw it on Four Weddings, doesn't mean it's a good idea.

    Never heard of dye for candles.... Not much of a DIY person but I'll always attempt it. Lol.  Thank you so much for the idea and suggesting places. Don't think I have a road trip planned that way. : )

    Where did your mom find the candles?  Could you have them order more for you?

    The candles were from a candle plate set that my mom bought years ago. Neither one of us can remember where she got it from. I do have a kohls near me. Thank you for the idea. I've been looking on a few candles websites but most of the candles are only one color. I've been debating on having the larger candle the dark green color and the smaller candle in the light green color. Any opinions? Thank you guys so much for your advice!

    Martha Stewart has a tutorial for dip-dying candles. That should work if you can't find exactly what you're looking for at the store.

    how about a local candle company? that actually makes candles there instead of just orders them.

    I have no idea where you live, but there is one candle place right near me, and i am pretty sure they ship, maybe try contacting them.

    just an idea!!
