They are super easy to make and because you melt the tissue paper into the candle, they are safe to burn. Just cut a piece of white tissue paper to fit around the candle (the cheaper the candle the better!) Stamp on the tissue paper then wrap around the candle. Take your heat tool and get it good and hot. Then, I usually hold the candle in my left hand with the ends of the tissue paper meeting by my palm. Start heating the candle in the middle of the tissue paper until you see the wax start to slightly melt. Then continue to move you heat tool around the entire candle, up and down, until the tissue paper is completely melted. Save the ends for last. If you get any wrinkles in the paper, you can usually stop heating and move the tissue paper quickly or melt more wax around it. I usually have a small amount of dripping wax, so to cover it up, I roll my still warm candle in dazzling diamonds glitter and finish it off with an organdy ribbon bow tied around it. Hope this helps!
