I have the honor of being a part of the Stampin' Fun and Friends Christmas Dreams design team for the month of November. You can check out the blog and projects HERE. Decorating a candle is very easy. I cut out the snowflakes using the Northern Frost Die and Stampin' Up!'s awesome Silver Glimmer paper. I used a paper piercing tool to poke a small hole and then anchored a a snowflake using a Circle Fire Rhinestone Brads to the candle. Very easy, but has such an elegant look! I also used a 3/4" circle punch to accent and fill in where needed with Silver Glimmer paper. What do you think? I will also be selling these candles at the upcoming Holiday Boutiques I will participating in on December 3rd and 4th!
I bought the candle holder shown below years ago on clearance from Land's End. I thought I would try and "dress" it up a bit. Again, I used the Silver Glimmer paper and Northern Frost die for the snowflakes. This time I attached the snowflakes to the glass candle holders using mini-glue dots. I then added pearls in the middle. I like the look, and it is so pretty when you light all the candles!
Thanks for stopping by and taking a look - here's a list of supplies:
Accessories: Big Shot, Northern Frost Die, Silver Glimmer Paper, Rhinestone Brads, Pearls, Mini-Glue Dots, Paper Piercing Tool, Candles
I am so glad you stopped by to take a peek at my blog! I have had "stampin' fever" for over 14 years now and have loved every minute of it! It's a wonderfully contagious disease, but beware... once you catch it, there is no cure!
