Joyful Creations - Decorated Candle

Hello Fellow Thrifters and Friends,

    I know it is getting rather close to Christmas and the thought of making a Christmas present may sound very stressful, but I promise this is an easy and rather inexpensive idea.

Materials Needed for this project:
-candle
-burlap
-ribbon
Tools Needed:
-Glue Gun

I stopeed dead in my tracks when I spotted this burlap at Joann's. I had never seen printed burlap before, and knew it would be perfect for this project.
- cut the burlap so it can go around the entire candle. Make sure you leave enough to fold over for a clean edge.
-Fold before hot gluing to the candle
-Glue the burlap to the candle 
- choose a pretty ribbon and glue around its middle or at the top or wherever suits your fancy
I had fun with this simple little project, and I made two different styles. 
You could easily make these any time of the year with different colors. 
Enjoy this lovely week before Christmas!
Smiles,
Pin It Now!
