Pics of First COMPLETE DIY

These are the memory candles for our fathers.

very very niceeee.! I need to do the same but cheap, i am running out of cashhhhh. Where did you get the supplies?

can you send me FM also... I think I would like to do this also...Is there a poem that goes on it..and what supplies did you use.

I bought the everything at AC Moore. The two smaller candles are 6 inches high, the large one in the middle is 9 inches high. Total cost $10 on sale. Ribbon 44 cents. Swarovski crystals $2.99. Poems are printed on vellum $1. Everything is then hot glued on.

Poems on the candles:

6 inch:
?Your life was a blessing
your memory a treasure...
You are loved beyond words
and missed beyond measure...

In Loving Memory
My Dad's name

9 inch:

Today we pause to reflect upon
those who have shaped our character,
molded our spirits and touched our hearts.
May the lighting of this candle be a
reminder of the memories we have shared,
a representation of the everlasting
impact you have made upon our lives.

For those who are
in our hearts on
our Wedding Day
~ and Always ~
bless us in spirit
as we begin our
new life together

Other 6 inch
Got a picture of you I carry in my heart,
Close my eyes to see it when the world gets dark,
Got a memory of you I carry in my soul,
I wrap it close around me when the nights get cold,
If you ask me how I'm doing I'd say just fine,
But the truth is, if you could read my mind,
Not a day goes by, that I don't think of you,
After all this time, you're still with me it's true,
Somehow you remain, locked so deep inside.

In Loving Memory
