Everyone loves candles. These are a great baby shower favor to give your guests.

The great thing about candles is that they can be personalized to fit the party theme and they are very inexpensive to make.

There are several great things that you can do to dress up cheap store bought candles that will make these party favors for your next event.

Buy a small candle already in a glass container, then with paint and a small paint brush paint on the glass. The easiest way is to get a small stencil of a simple object, such as a heart, and paint several hearts on the glass container, this personalizes them. Then add a bow to the candle and its ready for a gift.

One easy way to do a decoration is to outline a simple design in glue and the just add glitter to make a simple design that is cute and again your guests will love them.

Another option for be to get the small tin candles. These are sold in dollar stores, and you can get them online at auction sites cheap also.  To make these, measure the top circle, then create your design and print from your computer. Cut the circles out and paste them on the lid and you will have a great little favor for a few cents each. Sometimes you can find stickers in stores that you can just peel and stick on the lids.

As you can see with cheap candles you can make several great baby shower candle favors that you can give your guests.
