I altered a Dollar Store apple spice candle. The fun thing about these candles is that after the candle has burnt down, you can clean it out and use it as a candy jar (or put anything else in it that you would like).
I love this plaid circle that is part of the tag set. I thought it was perfect to use with an apple theme.
I colored all the images with Copic markers and used scrap papers. The nice thing is about the size of these jars is that one 12 x 12 sheet of cardstock will make 12 jars! This makes a very affordable gift.
To pretty up the gift wrapping I used a cello bag and some shredded paper and tied off with vintage seam binding.
Sweet gift! I love the colors & very afforable!
