Have you been looking for a good gift idea or maybe just a special custom touch to add to your home – stamp on a candle.  I know, it sounds strange.  But, it’s a really simple process to get a great look!

I then added some silver 1/8″ ribbon (found in the Stampin’ Up! holiday catalog, item #132137, 10 yards for $4.95) and tied it in a bow.
