DIY Candles w/your wedding logo

Maura · April 24, 2008

I tried Sarah's DIY candle project last weekend. Here are some photos.

First, I designed a logo for my civil ceremony using Mac Pages. The swash in the background is from Paper-Source and is the same one I linked to in my civil ceremony invitation post. The font of the H and the names is Chopin Script.

Here are the candles:

I used votives to practice, but for the real deal, I will use large pillar candles.

You will need the following supplies:

Candles

Tissue paper

inkjet printer

masking tape

heat embossing gun

if you use the search function, look up DIY candle favors and sarah posted the directions. I skipped the wax paper part and mine turned out perfectly fine.
