Nightingale Lamps/Pinning Ceremony

Hello everyone...I am in the midst of planning our pinning ceremony. I was wondering if any of you knew where I could purchase small nightingale lamp candle holders to use for the candle light portion of the ceremony. I have seen these before and a friend of mine remembered having one for her pinning ceremony but cant remember where her class purchased them. I have done a google search and still no luck.....any ideas?

Try calling "The Pin People" at 1-800-624-7493. I met these folks (Dick and Charlotte Summerfield) at a student nurse convention. They were very helpful. Medium plain ones (3 1/4" x 6') are $6.00 each, and the price goes up from there...

Our were made by a local candlemaking shop. The entire thing was a candle. I still ahve it 10 years later.

we used a pretty candle holder for our ceremony. had a ribbon in our class colour tied on it...don't know where they got the holders, though. sorry! :imbar

I would freak out if I had to participate in this.

@ imthatguy, what's there to freak out about?

I just think it's cheesey and outdated. I don't want any part of it, lol.

Well yeah, but from other posts you have a tough time not freaking out because your classmates ask to many questions. Seems there's a lot to "freak out" about in your life.
