A decorated candle for my grandma


My grandma's name is Lucia, so I decided to make her a little present for her.

I wrapped around the pilar candle some lace and some jute hessian and on top I placed a length of lace. I love the contrast between the coarse texture of the hessian and the soft delicate lace.

I then die cut the heart out of canvas using one of the latest Sizzix dies from the Craft Asylum Tribal collection. Using one old alphabet rub on, I added the initial and then I placed a pearl in the centre. Finally I tried to sew the edge without much luck. But I love the texture left behind!

I hope my grandma likes it!
