Blogger's Challenge #77: Christmas Decorations!

Our challenge this week was to create a Christmas decoration or ornament. Since I've discovered how fun and rewarding "stamping" on candles is, I thought I would share this one!

You need: tissue paper, stamps (of course!) ink, a a heat tool and some wax paper to make this fabulous decoration (which mine will be a gift!)



Stamp image as you want it to appear on your candle. Trim closely around it. Dab a little Glue Stick on the back and put it on your candle. Wrap with wax paper and hold tightly while you heat the tissue and it melts into your candle. Repeat as many times as you want your images to be on your candle. That's it!



Thanks for looking and be sure to see what the other Blogger's Challenge members dreamt up! You WON'T be disappointed!!!

This turned out great. I used to love doing candles but last time I did it they did not turn out too nice? Maybe it was the type of candle? You have me wanting to do it again.
