DIY: PERSONALIZED PHOTO VOTIVE

I am in love with this craft from Martha Stewart (loves her). This would make a really sweet Valentines gift for any of your loved ones!
Supplies: T-Shirt transfer paper, Scissors, Muslin, Votive candle holders (mine are actually glass tumblers from IKEA) and photos, scissors, craft glue. Step 1: Measure the circumference of your votive holder (Help from a puppy is optional) Cut your muslin with a little extra to overlap and glue later.
Step 2: print and transfer your images according to the directions on the paper package. My images were 2 inches tall and about 2.5 inches wide. Its up to you on how large or small you want them, and can also depend on the size of your votive holder! **Remember that if you are using words or numbers you must print them as a mirrored image or they will be backward**
Step 3: Allow the transfer to cool and then wrap around your votive holder, attach ends with a small dot of craft glue. These are easily removed so you can switch them out whenever you please!
The end result is a dreamy, glowy image and a unique way to display personal photos!

Happy Crafting!
