Advent Wreath, kid friendly

This year I wanted my boys to help us prepare our home as we get ready for Christmas, not just the tree or gingerbread house.
After a trip to the Dollar Tree and Michael's we were ready to begin.  We found 4 glass vases and filled them with Epsom Salt.  We placed the white pillar candles into the Epsom Salt.  My son wrote 1. Hope  2. Joy 3. Prepare, 4.  Love on tags we found at Michael's and tied with ribbon around the vases. We placed it on a charger plate and placed white snowballs around to fill the plate.  Each Sunday we will light a new candle as we prepare for Christmas.

They can hardly wait to light the candles each night.
