New stuff I made

I had an order for some boxes and candles and thought that I would share them with you all.

I love making the fabric covered boxes, they are so fast and easy to do. I love how they turn out each and everytime. I usually paint the inside of my boxes, but decided to try something a little different this time. I used Walnut gel stain and I love how it turned out (pic 1).









I also made some canldes. They are from a mold and I used cinnamon wax. I have had the same pot of cinnamon wax for over 2 years now and it just keeps getting better and better. I treat it just like a bread starter, by just adding more wax, color, cinnamon and oil to it and the color is wonderful. On these candles I aslo painted the tea lights and covered them with cinnamon.







Thanks for looking..................
Hugs,
Retha
