Cute gift idea

I know a few of you are making gifts to give for Christmas. I have a fairly easy, inexpensive project

buy plain pillar candles...preferable white or cream...at the dollar store. Stamp a pretty design on tissue paper. Cut your tissue paper so it wraps around the candle without over lapping in the back and even with the top and bottom of candle. then you take a heat gun (or a hair dryer) and "heat" up the tissue paper on the candle. Dont melt the candle...just heat it enough to "melt" the top layer of the tissue paper and the wax will be absorbed into the paper and make it look like you stamped on the candle.

Take a ribbon and wrap it around the candle and tie a bow for a finished look!! Pretty easy and makes a REALLY nice gift!!
