If you are looking for a fun gift to make for any occasion, then personalized
candle making may be something you would like to consider. There are many ways
to make personalized candles, depending on how much time and money you are willing
to spend. With just a little extra time and effort, you can make a personalized
candle out of an otherwise ordinary candle gift that the lucky recipient will
love.

1. The simplest way to make a personalized candle is get a normal candle at
your local candle store. Even general retail stores like Walmart sometimes have
candles for sale. Candles come in all shapes and sizes, but almost any candle
can be personalized.

2. Anything smaller than a tea light will be difficult to personalize. For tea light
candles, you can normally purchase a big bag for a low price. These candles
are great as favors for guests at a wedding or baby shower. The easiest way
to personalize is to use either a graphics program on your computer or a word
processor. We’ll stick with the Word processor since it is easier. First, draw
a circle the same dimensions as the lid on the tea light, or better yet use a
circular label sheet. Then select a nice font, like cursive script or Corsiva.
You can enter then names and date of the event into the circle. Print out a
sample on plain paper to make sure the look and size is right. Once you have
the desired result, you can print your tea light label stickers. Finally, apply
the sticker onto the top of the tea light.

3. For jar candles, you can create a square-shaped personalized label. Since
you have more area to work with, you can download free graphics from the Internet.
Search the web for “free clip art” and download the images you want.
Once again print out a sample on plain paper and then print the label. If you
don’t have a color printer, you can go to a local copier and they can make a
nice label for you. Stick the label on the jar. Now you have created a unique
gift personalized just for that special person.

4. For tall pillar candles, you can get those engraved at an engraving shop
(look in the phone book under engravers). The artwork and text can come in different
colors. If you are artistic, you can even buy candle-engraving kits online and
do it yourself.

5. How about those 1oz votive candles? For a professional looking gift, get
cellophane bags and colored ribbon. Wrap the candle in the cello bag and tie
it up with the ribbon. Then attach a personalized tag to the ribbon. These candles
can also be engraved.

6. If you can make candles, then there are limitless possibilities. You can
use different fragrances oils to create scented candles. You can use embeds
for decoration. Cookie cutters and molds are also useful for designing the right
shape.

In summary, you can take an ordinary store candle and make it a very special
gift with just a little more effort. Your friends and loved ones will cherish
these gifts for years to come.
