Abstract
A candle support apparatus which is adapted for securement to a bottle cap, package, container or other gift, comprising a candle socket, and at least two elongated, resilient arms radially extending from the candle socket. The resilient arms have depending arm portions with an inclined tab inwardly disposed at the distal end of each depending arm, to secure the candle support apparatus about an unopened bottle cap secured to a bottle. A suitable adhesive is positioned beneath the candle socket to provide additional means of securement. A detent is provided for ease of breaking the resilient arms from the candle socket, to enable the user to alternately secure the candle support apparatus to a suitable object, such as a package, jar, can, container or other gift. A drip catching disc may be secured beneath the candle socket to catch drips from the lighted candle. The drip catching disc preferably has a raised outer periphery for ease of retaining candle drips.
