Cool!

Where did you get the applique from and can we get a pic?

You know you may be able to get a pillar candle from Dollar Tree for cheaper than Michaels.

No for the personalized hangers for the GM....they aren't going to care.

My first attempt at this was decent but it's more difficult than i imagined. and there is no turning back since i purchased all the supplies. lol if you have any tips as you start please share!! my only tip is stand up, it's difficult to sit and work with the wire.

And I second the No for the groosmen. they won't care as much.

Please post a pic of the finish product. I never even thought of making my own unity candle.

will do, I bought vellum paper to print a quote on and some scrapbook rhinestone looking things....I'm just so not ok with spending $40+ on a $1 candle!
