Pam Bray (You Are Here)

I created a fun and super easy Graphic 45 Season's Candle that was share on the Graphic 45 Blog on Friday...so make sure to stop by there to check out my Season's Frame that is also a part of my post.
HERE!!!

 
“Hi Graphic 45 fans…are you getting excited about the holidays! I am!!! I love to have a few special gifts in the house during this time of year. You never know when you will need on… so I am sharing a quick and easy; under 60 minutes altered candle. You can easily recreate with any of Graphic 45 collections but I chose the “new” Seasons Collection for my Altered Candle” Pam


Create a belly band from pieces of Seasons Collection Pattern Paper.


Wrap jar with prepared belly band.


Fussy two of the Epherema pieces from pattern paper; layer together with pop dots and place on front of jar.


 Add ribbon to jar.


Add floral leaves and berries around Epherema.


 Add sunflower, floral leaves and berries to top of jar along with fussy cut image from paper.


Tips:
1.      Keep small generic gifts on hand that have been decorated with Graphic 45 Paper Collections to give over the holidays.
2.      Use scraps of left over scrapbook paper to decorate gift bags and tags with.

  3. I love how you have decorated that candle so beautifully. What a wonderful display candle to show off during the Fall season. I love all the Autumn colors and decorations you added to it.

    1. Yes Verna it will be hard to light this candle up but thankfully I will have the topper to add to another candle and maybe...fingers crossed be able to move the wrap to another candle.

  12. I always admire your gorgeous projects Pam, and this decorated candle would impress any recipient. I have some plain jar candles that would love to get dressed up like this any time of year! My favorite time of year is Fall because of the crisp air that makes me want to snuggle with my sweaters and sit in front of the fire.

  18. Hi Pam
    I don't know whether this will post as my last comment didn't which might preclude me from the chance to win from other blogs as I live in the UK :(

    I love your altered Autumn Jar is gorgeous. In my previous post I said Christmas jar by mistake !Christmas, it's all I can think about at the moment! Sorry! My family celebrate Thanksgiving by going to Vegas as they have lived in LA for years. I l just love the autumnal colours here in the UK. Can I qualify as a quasi American :) ?
