Answers to questions like this always depend mostly on what you are trying to accomplish with the photo. I'd agree with zhounder here; having the major foreground subjects out of focus is somewhat distracting, and there really is no way to fix focus in photoshop. I'd reshoot, maybe using a tripod to allow a very small lens opening. Your placemet of the subjects is OK, and the clock and wilted flower seem to be starting to tell some sort of story. Depending on what you are really trying to say, maybe having the candle burned out or melting would better emphasize your point. I'd also move the candle slightly forward, and overlap the vase; give a greater feeling of three dimensionality.
