What a cute decoration idea for Christmas! With the napkin technique you can apply any napkin motif to a candle and create great decorations. Also a great gift idea! The recipient will definitely be happy to receive a personalised candle from you!

This is how you design the candles:
Choose your favourite napkin or handkerchief motif. We chose cute winter bunnies for our decoration. Roughly cut out the bunny motifs from the handkerchief. Remove the top printed layer and then cut out the motif cleanly along the edges of the motif with the tweezers.

Transfer the handkerchief motifs to the candles with candle potch: Stick your motif straight onto the candle with a little candle potch. Caution: Apply the candle potch to the candle, not to the back of the napkin or handkerchief! Now you can carefully brush the candle potch over the handkerchief motif without it slipping. Let it dry thoroughly.

Finally, decorate the candles on the wooden bowl with pine cones and eucalyptus.
