Decorate Your Candle!

I'm back! This blog post is very special because its my first blog post of 2013 and I find this project really cool! It a marvelous gift too! This would be a great gift for your teachers too! All you need is a few materials:

• A white candle (any size)
• Tissue paper
• A stamp (its length should be about the same as the candle)
• Ink
• Decorations (Ribbons, scrapbook paper, e.t.c.)
• Heat Gun or a Hair Dryer
• Scissors

First, take the tissue paper and cut it about the size of the width of the candle. Next, take your stamp and put it on the ink so you can stamp it. Rub it on the ink smoothly so the stamp comes out fully colored and moist. Stamp it on to the tissue paper a few times so the whole tissue paper is stamped. Don't worry if it overlaps. In addition, take the candle and lay it down in the middle of the tissue paper and wrap the tissue paper around the candle. More importantly, take the heat gun or your hair dryer and turn it on. (if you have a blow dryer, then turn it on HIGH) Blow it on to the tissue paper so the design would melt onto the candle. You will be able to see the wax melting a little but let it melt. Keep doing this until the tissue sticks to the candle.

Furthermore, you can add decorations to it. This is just an idea. You can cut scrapbook paper to fit around the candle and tape it or glue it on top of the tissue paper. You can also tie a ribbon on top of the scrapbook paper so it looks more fancy! Just use your imagination for how to design it.

HAVE FUN!
