Decorating Candles

Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Make your own candles in your kitchen with readily available supplies, or if you prefer, decorate store-bought varieties. What could be easier than applying temporary tattoos--try boldly elegant tribal motifs or mottos. Embellish a pillar with delicate quilled bouquets of paper-filigree flowers, or put your seal of approval on a candle with medallions of wax. You'll always have the perfect gift, table centerpiece, or mood enhancer.
