Personalized candles

  

 This week  we are featuring a craft project that kids can make to give their grandparents for GRANDPARENTS’ DAY, to show their love for these special parents! You can create a personalized candle .

You will need the following  supplies:

a candle

wax paper

tracing paper

 tissue paper

markers 

hair dryer

STEP ONE
Find an  image you want  and print it off on tissue paper. Then trim your image leaving as little border as possible and place it ink side out  on your candle.

 STEP TWO
Wrap a piece of wax paper tightly around your candle, holding both ends in one hand on the back side.

STEP THREE
For this step you can use  an embossing gun, hairdryer or even your iron.
Heat until you see the wax paper start to melt and you see the ink come through the paper. This can take about 1-2 minutes.

STEP FOUR
Next, give the candle about 10 seconds for the candle to cool a little.After that peel off the wax paper slowly. You have your pesonalized candle!


STEP FIVE
To add an extra little touch you can add a ribbon, glitter or anything else you wanted. Enjoy!
