Scrap Fabric Candle Ornaments

"Turn leftover fabric scraps into whimsical Christmas candle ornaments with this easy sewing project and free pattern. Inspired by vintage Christmas decorations, these colourful fabric candles are a fun way to make something festive from materials you already have. I used old Indian Kantha fabric, felt scraps, gold embroidery thread and sequins to create the candles, complete with embroidered flames and little golden halos. You can easily use old patterned shirts, upholstery samples or leftover quilting fabric instead. The simple, rustic stitching makes this a forgiving craft, even for beginners. Hang your finished fabric candles individually on the Christmas tree or make several to create a colourful handmade Christmas garland. A lovely budget-friendly Christmas upcycling project!"
