My OOT bags and candles

you had me for a second there! Some people say "necessity is the mother of invention" well I I say having no money is the mother of invention. So I really had to do this stuff. I do appreciate your compliment, I needed it after spending some of my winter vacation curled up with a paper trimmer.

Ya know making this stuff really makes you appreciate how much work goes into something. My first bag took me 1 hour to make but now I have it down to 30 minutes. So to answer your question...NO!

Everything looks GREAT Steph; good work!!!

Great work Steph, Love the candles!!

nice! do you have to open them for the matches or can you slide it in? i hope you didn't close them all

Yes, I only have the ribbon slid into the one side of the bag and not the other so I just open the one side, put the matches in, and tie them up. I really wanted to get them done so I did as much as I could with out being silly and having to undo stuff.

I love them. Do you write these poems yourself or are you finding them somewhere?. They are always so beautiful!

Everything looks great!!!! i love the candles...I might steel that idea.

I love the bags Stephanie! I would totally use them over and over again...they are so cute! And packaging of the candle is so fun...you're guests are going to love em!

This poem I found

The Candle

Like the light of a bright candle

And the warmth of a fire's glow,

We brighten every corner

When we let love show.

The one on my popcorn box tags I wrote myself.

You would be stealing it several times over as it wasn't my idea. It is way cheaper to do them yourself than to pay well over $3 to get them done for you.

Thanks, I am really hoping they reuse them. I made sure each guest room booked would have one female in it becuase I can't see too many guys carrying these around.
