The flickering light of candles exudes a beautiful light and a cosiness that cannot be created with artificial lights. Candles decorated with flowers look particularly pretty. Such a homemade candle is a wonderful gift for friends, relatives or acquaintances whom you would like to give a little pleasure.

This is how the beautiful candles are designed:
Place flowers on the candle surface and stretch baking paper tightly over them. Gently warm the surface with the embossing hairdryer. As soon as you see that the wax is liquefying on the surface, switch off the hairdryer. After a short moment, carefully peel off the baking paper. The flower has now "sunk" into the top layer of wax.

Write on the smooth (important!) side of the tissue paper and apply it to the candle in the same way, also covered with baking paper.

Cut a strip from the kraft paper and stick it around the candles as a banderole. Decorate with tag and ribbon.

Important: Never leave a candle burning unattended.
