DIY Candle Wedding Favor
A DIY candle wedding favor couldn't be simpler to achieve, so think about the details. Small touches make a huge difference in the look of a candle and needn't take up much time or effort. Candles look good displayed in everything from recycled tin cans to china cups. While plain white candles work with any decor, color adds an extra decorative dimension. Keep the overall look delightfully pretty and stick to stylish accessories. Making candle wedding favors is a personal way to give of yourself a token gift with glowing results.
Make it yours. DIY Candle Wedding Favors.
Candle wedding favors can be displayed in all manner of ways, so choose something that works with your wedding decor. While tealight wedding favors are the cheapest and humblest candles of them all, they can be the most effective when displayed in mass. Wine bottles filled with taper candles is a relatively new idea that favors recycling that guests will love to take home. Whatever pretty elements you choose, thanking guests with a diy candle wedding favor will cast a magical glow and fit perfectly with any wedding theme.
Bright idea.
The candlelight gives a warm, ambient glow to this rustic tablescape. Dressing up Mason jars with burlap, buttons, jute, and ribbons only adds to the centerpiece and makes a pretty wedding favor.

Candle inspiration.
Making wedding favors is easy to do and very appealing with this idea. A vintage teacup is the perfect occasion for making the most of this diy candle wedding favor. It doesn't matter if all the cup patterns match, that's all part of the vintage appeal. Keep the color of the candles cohesive though.

Simple steps to making candle wedding favors.
Design. . .
Choose your candle design. Individual votive candles are probably the most popular, but shaped candles are a unique choice-hearts, pears, etc. You are the creative force here, so be spectacular.
Melt. . .
Soy wax is a popular choice when hand making candles. The wax is melted in a double boiler on the stovetop, using the lowest setting on your stove. Do not heat the wax on high heat because it will burn or possibly cause a fire. When the wax is liquid, take off the heat and stir in candle dyes and fragrances.
Pour. . .
First of all, cut a wick and secure it with a dot of hot wax in the bottom of the container. Slowly pour the melted wax into the votive of your choice making sure the wick stands straight up. Let it cool and solidify. Before burning, trim all the wicks to ΒΌ inch.
Accessorize. . .
Wedding charms, personalized gift tags, color coordinated ribbon, or monogrammed votive candle holders, for example. Or consider personal messages..."The light of our love will always burn bright" or "He is the flip to my flop" for a beach wedding favor.
