Guess what????? I have a new goodie to share with you today! My grandma's birthday was this weekend and I had a gift idea in mind to make. She almost always has a jar candle burning and I got to thinking.......What if a person likes the scent of a particular candle, but doens't like the color????? You know....one of my favorite Ynakee scents is pink and I don't have a pink thing in my house except my little girl's room. Now, that color hasn't stopped me from buying it....but what if it had?
{lol} Am I the only one who thinks up these thoughts???? {probably....}
But anyway....I got to work.
I wanted to make a fringy type of cover, a cozie of sorts.....out of fabric.....something that could be used for more than one candle......(I put paper embellies around a jar candle for both my Grams and thy hated to burn them because the paper embellies couldn't be used again.....)
Wanna see what I did?
Do ya?
I can't hear you.........
Ok, that's better! ;)
I cut the fabric with the big shot and the scallop square die. But - you say - it is in one solid piece......not in squares like th erag bag you made........ That my friends will be for another day ;)
Wanna see it from the back??
How about a closeup of that pretty little bow/button thingy?
It was made from a bow of always artichoke seam binding ribbon, a loop of vintage lace ribbon, and a big button. Cute, huh?
well....what do you think?
