How do you???

Make the monogram on the fabric to go around the untiy candle, i have seen it done before but i am clueless.

Does anyone have any pics of any diy unity candles and instructions on how to do it or any ideas?

Try using vellum paper. You can print it on your regular computer. Let me see if I can bump any threads I've seen

Use vellum and run through computer like regular paper. Cut down to fit if you cannot find letter size. Make sure to adjust your printer settings for 'transparencies' in your print setup.

Laser printers do the best job so be careful handling the final product if you used an inkjet printer to do it. The ink may smudge if you rub it. Use double sided tape to stick the paper on the candle. Make sure to leave around and inch of candle exposed at the top so it has room to 'burn' without reaching where the paper is! You can add ribbon to the candle to cover where the paper ends.

I found this photo in a post by Aug07OFCbride
she did a beautiful job! She used ribbon matching her wedding colors to cover the edge of the vellum and left a nice amount of room for the candle to burn!
