    Took a break from the quilting of the Queen Sized Quilt and made these candles. The blue are Lavender and the reddish one is Raspberry. They are very lightly scented candles cause I cant take a lot of smells. :)

    Yes Pam they are Christmas gifts. The tall candle holder is one of 6. I am going to make the other 5 today. They are going to go to my brother and his wife for Christmas along with some dish towels and hand towels. The candle in the heart cup is going to a friend at work along with a basket of other goodies. The two short blue candles are going into another basket for another co worker and the raspberry one I am keeping. :)

    Those are beautiful! :) What did you use to give them such wonderfully intense color?
