palm sunday | marmite et ponpon

There are many ways to decorate the palm sunday candle at home. If your precious is a girl and you want to make something simple and girly, you will like this one.

Colors are very subjective depending on your girl cloths, her favourite colors or even yours!

In a previous post i showed you how to make these beautiful flowers. Check spring flowers for tutorials, but this time you will need ribbons and buttons for the carpel.

Start by wrapping two intertwined ribbons on the 1/3 third of the candle to keep space for the little hand to hold it.

If you noticed they are 3 sizes flowers. Glue the big and medium one on the wrapped ribbons and the small on one of the hanging ribbons as shown.

And it’s ready 🙂 Simple, easy and beautiful.

Marine Palm Sunday candle – DIY

Palm sunday is in less than a week time. If you still didn’t buy your kid’s candle and you would like to make a special unique one, here is a step by step tutorial for a marine theme.

On a white candle, wrap two different colors of ribbon, almost at the 1/3, so it’s above your kid hand grip.

Create with a third color ribbon, a kind of bow as shown below and stick it in the middle between the two ribbons.

Stick the motifs either with UHU glue or wax gun. Click here to download a high resolution file of the drawing. Print it on a card board and let the printing house cut it out with laser if you are not good with the exacto.

Use a thread to attach the wheel and anchor, and let them dangle.

You can use any color related to the marine theme, not necessarily those specific ones. Depending on what you find in the shop.

Boy or girl can enjoy this candle. Happy palm sunday!
