Candle Wedding Favors – Craft Gossip

Catalina Candles have the cutest candle favors for guests to take home as elegant thank you gifts. They would also make a fun display for them to remember the wedding with.

For a unique beach wedding, check out their “beaches” tin pail candle with authentic shells. They feature a pretty scallop-conch-starfish design on the outside with shells embedded in the wax. They’re finished off with a lovely organza ribbon.

Another charming beach themed wedding candle is their “seaside” beach candles. The set features a realistic looking starfish, conch shell and scallop shell.

If you’re looking for a more elegant traditional look, try their long stem rose candle in a showcase cylinder box with a ribbon. They come in red, white and pink but I find red to be most romantic. They would look pretty greeting guests at each place setting.

A whimsical candle that would make a great Vegas wedding favor is their “lucky in love” four suits candle set in an adorable display box.

I have a complicated relationship with my embroidery needles. Which is a fancy way of saying I don’t really take care of my needles at all. Even though I know I have embroidery needles to use for cross stitch and sewing, needles that are certainly still in their packages, I can rarely find them when I need them.

So when I saw this post from Crewel Ghoul about how to store your embroidery needles, it hit close to home for me.

It doesn’t really say anything I didn’t already know, but it is good advice that might also serve as a reminder for you to take better care of your needles when you cross stitch or do other hand-sewing projects so that you’ll be able to find your needles again when you need them.

It would help me a lot if I had a dedicated place to keep needles I’m not using, including the needles that are still in their packages from when I bought them. You’d think I would keep them with my embroidery floss but apparently you would be mistaken about that.

Another good idea for me is to have a place to put needles I’ve been using when I am done with them. Because goodness knows I’m not going to put them back in the package. (Which may actually be a good thing because then I know which one I’ve been using and which ones are fresh. Not that I replace my needles regularly, but still.) I own pincushions but I don’t really use them for anything, which is silly.

Check out the post at Crewel Ghoul to see all the options available for storing your embroidery needles properly. I’d love to hear what you do, especially if you have a better system than I do (which, honestly, would be any system at all).
