PICS of my DIY Memorial Candles

It is important for me to honor my parents (as well as other family members) at the wedding who were married for 30 years until death did they part. Here is one of the many ways I will be honoring their memory:

Thanks Date Twin

I got the candles and vellum from Michaels and the ribbon from Wal-Mart. I used a hot glue gun and patience working with the crystals. I used E600 glue for the crystals.

amazing! Are you looking for a side-job? I'm half-kidding there -- I could not imagine doing such a great job myself!

Re: PICS of my DIY Memorial Candles

And, I'm sorry for your losses. Sorry I didn't say that originally. No matter how old or new a loss may be, I know that during planning, it can get difficult. Especially when making such beautiful memorial items, it must be very bittersweet to work on them.
