Cut N Carve Candle Instructions

by

Candle carving is a unique and impressive technique that can take an ordinary candle and turn it into a work of art. However, it can also seem intimidating to those who are new to the craft. Fortunately, there are resources available for anyone who wants to try their hand at candle carving. One such resource is the candle carving instructions provided by One Stop Candle. These instructions offer a detailed guide on how to carve candles, including what tools to use and how to create different shapes and designs.

For those who are interested in learning candle carving, but don’t have the budget for expensive classes, these instructions can be a great starting point. While it may take some practice to perfect the craft, there’s no harm in starting with a simple design and working your way up. If you make a mistake, you can always melt the candle down and start again.

Candle carving can add a unique and personalized touch to your candles, making them perfect for gift-giving or for adding a special touch to your home decor. With these instructions and a little practice, anyone can master the art of candle carving and create beautiful, one-of-a-kind candles.

Christmas Ornament Cross Stitch Patterns

The other day I shared some cross stitch patterns with ornaments on them, so this time around I wanted to share cross stitch patterns that you can use as ornaments. It would be fun to do a whole tree in your craft room with cross stitch ornaments, or just add a few to your tree or give them as gifts.

These little quilt inspired cross stitch patterns from Flamingo Toes look like ornaments and fit in 3-inch hoops, which are perfect for hanging on the tree or using to decorate a gift. I love the pastel colors on these but you can use more traditional Christmas colors if you like.

This cute Christmas tree from Lagodargetoshop uses a single color and fits in a 4-inch hoop, but you could make it smaller if you wanted by trimming the last ornaments and gifts from the sides, or just stitch the tree without any other embellishments. Either way it’s a cute addition to your holiday tree.

Stitched Modern has a super cute collection of retro Christmas ornament cross stitch patterns from designer Gera. This is a printed pattern that will be shipped to you. Each pattern is about 40 by 56 stitches, or 2.9 by 4 inches/7.4 by 10 cm on 14 count fabric. To work the whole set you’ll need 20 colors of floss.

These snowflake ornaments from Our Little Handmade Home are each about 2.5 inches/6.4 cm when stitched on 14 count fabric, and they use a single color of floss. They are pretty in red but you could also do white on a blue or black background, or whatever suits your other Christmas tree decorations!

From the description it sounds like this set of vintage style cross stitch characters is presented as one large chart, but the photo from Sampler Antique Stitch shows each of them stitched up as their own little ornament, so it gets included here. You’ll find Santa and snowmen in different poses in this cute collection.
