during my handmade hollydaze efforts of december, i made a date with candle making queen sara while her little one napped. she's the one working in all the pics while i snapped photos, took notes, and wrapped wicks around sticks. hard labor.
she ordered supplies from candlewic.com, i showed up with my mason jars, and we created a dozen candles in an afternoon.
to gift them, wrap a coffee filter around the top, secure with a rubber band and baker's twine, then add a sweet tag stamped or penned with the recipient's name.
loved the process and so enjoy giving handmade gifts. now off to oklahoma where i'll be crafting, canning, and crocheting for days. bisous. x
