Stenciled Monogram Candles

Hi, Everybody! As National Craft Month continues, I'm sharing another fun, easy craft with you today! These Stenciled Monogram Candles only take a couple of minutes to make, and are a great way to make personalized candles for your home or to give as gifts! And of course you don't just have to stick to monograms, you can decorate your candles however you choose! To make one of these, all you need is some tissue paper, wax paper, a permanent marker, a hair dryer and a candle! Draw your monogram or image onto a piece of tissue paper using the permanent marker, cut it out leaving just a thin border around the image. Position it where you want it on your candle, then tightly wrap some wax paper around the candle, and apply heat to it using a hair dryer. You will know the image has been transferred onto the candle once you peel the wax paper off and the tissue paper has sort of melted into the candle. 


Happy Crafting, Everyone!
