My little nephew S got me this oh so good smelly candle as a Christmas gift

The label on the glass was not the prettiest one,
but the maker knows it because look at what he wrote on it:

Well, how clever are you! I cannot live without my candles. Did you see my candle chest last week? (very silly) I must try something like that with one of mine.

Oh what a wonderful idea...I usually leave mine plain and undecorated...glad they started making the lables in the "peel off"
style though!
So happy you could stop over for "cake" ;-) ~ Rebecca
Love the vintage jewel!!!
Beautiful re-do! I should do that with some of my jar candles...much prettier to look at this way!
Have a great WW!
Thanks for stopping by my blog -- lunch actually was pretty tasty, considering it came out of package from Costco.
Hope this comment works -- I have been having trouble leaving them today.

What a great way to transform your candle glass container. From sad to fab in no time. Such a fun idea.
Stop by, I'm new to the White Wednesday events.

So darling!
That is awesome!
What a fantastic and creative makeover. I really love the rhinestone pin/brooch!
Who would have thunk??...to do such a creative thing to a candle!
I love the idea and I love how it turned out...the brooch is just icing on the candle!!!

That is a great idea! I always save the larger candle jars, soak off the labels and use them later for storage and display. I never thought to pretty them up before and now I see what I should do with my plain empties!
Thanks!
