There are so many ways to beautify your home and make every celebration becomes even more festive.One of the things I always like to have on the table is lovely candles. You know how with candles lights even the plainest dinner turns into a celebration. Of course you can go to the store and buy beautiful candles, but there is no reason not to make personalised candles for yourself. And you can make it to look just the way you want.The procedure is very simple and very effective.
You will need:
simple white candle
dinner napkin
wax paper
hair dryer or heat gun
Cut out the motif from the dinner napkin and use just the top layer with the print, set it on the candle and wrap it in wax paper. Leave paper a little longer in order to have protection for your hands and to easily hold a candle.
Heat the candle with heat gun or hair dryer until the wax starts to melt and soak into napkin.
This way napkin will absorb the wax and will not burn when you light a candle.
Allow a few seconds to cool and slowly remove the paper.
I'm sorry that I forgot to make a tutorial in pictures but all this you can easily find the http://www.youtube.com/
