Materials:

  • Decorative paper napkin
  • White pillar candle
  • Equipment:
  • Scissors
  • Parchment paper
  • Iron

Instructions:

Step 1: Find what you need

Gather your supplies and materials.

Step 2: Prepare the napkin

Unfold a paper napkin and peel off the top patterned layer.

Cut a piece of napkin that’s just big enough to cover the candle and wrap around. (Cut it a bit bigger at first, then adjust the size).

Set the napkin on your working surface with the pattern side facing down. Place the candle in the center.

Wrap the napkin around the candle.

Then wrap a piece of parchment paper around the candle, on top of the napkin.

Step 3: Iron the candle

Pre-heat your iron to low heat, no steam.

Hold the iron against the parchment-covered candle, applying gentle pressure. Turn the candle slowly and carefully to apply even heat. Don’t stay in one place for too long.

Continue until you’ve made your way around the whole candle and the napkin is smoothly fused to the candle’s surface.Pay close attention to the top and bottom of the candle, going in on angle with the iron, if needed.

Step 4: Remove the parchment paper

Peel the parchment paper off the candle. If there are any areas of the napkin that didn’t stick well, you can put the parchment paper back on and re-apply heat.

Your candle decorated with napkins is complete!
