Don't use a large Garbage Bag. Use the ones they give you in supermarkets for your groceries. And you only use a small 'Tea Candle'. If you can't get Tea candles small enough, a cotton ball soaked in metho works even better!

They float up extremely high until you can't see them any more, or get carried away by the wind.
How do you suspend the tealight below the bag? I would like to give this ago this coming winter.
