Unity candle?
OK I found this on another site and I don't want to post there faces don't want to upset any one so I blacked it out. We really want something like this for are unity candle. FH mother can't walk! So we are having the BM and MOH take the small candles from the mothers and bringing it to us when it's time to light the unity candle. So we don't need the regular unity candle. I can't find just a tapered candle the has the letter N on it. Any one know of a place that can do this? I have done a lot of research and can't find any one to personalize a taper candle. Any ideals?...

Diy
I haven't heard of anything but you can get things made for scrape books and make it yourself. They have metal letters that you can glue on the candle or they have pretty matalic or colored stickers in pretty fonts. Tie some ribbon and tada, you've got it done.

The only thing that I can think is you could try doing a wax seal with your monogram on it and attaching that to the candle. Maybe with a ribbon around it that meets under the seal?

I've heard that if you stamp on tissue paper and then use an embossing heat gun to warm up the candle just so it starts to get glossy, you can stick the stamped tissue paper on the candle and it will dry on. Maybe that would be something to try if you can find a nice stamp with the right letters.

OH my ladies I posted this and then went to E-Bay searching for things and found this. I have spoke with the lady and she worked with me like no other on Eba.

I ended up paying 8.50 for one tapered with the heart on it with the letter N in the middle. I can't wait to get it. I hope it is as nice as the picture looks. I'm so excited...

That is really pretty, and a good deal!  If I wasn't making my own, I'd probably get one too, lol.

That's really pretty, what colour have you ordered it in? Did you go with the red for your mum?
