When I first laid eyes on these adorable little tea cup and saucer candles, my DIY wheels started turning. What a wonderful way to blend my love for candles and secondhand shopping into one inexpensive, personalized creation. I’ll admit… I find it hard to walk by the tea cup isle at Value Village and Goodwill stores and not stop to browse. There is something about those odd, mismatched little patterns and delicate bone china handles that screams BUY ME. My tea cup collection has grown over the years… and yes, I love drinking tea. However, I’ve discovered that it’s rare that I’ll call a bunch of girls over to sip earl grey and eat tiny sandwiches. My ladies nights usually consist of bricks of gourmet cheese, crackers and several glasses of heavy red wine. Lets be real, after a nights like these… a little tea cup isn’t going to cut it. I usually need a large bottomless mug with a cheesy saying on it like “I only drink wine in days that end with Y.” So I guess what I’m saying is… what the heck am I going to do with all of these tea cups and my growing obsession to acquire more?
The answer… Make candles!
Have a look at how fabulous these tea cup candles are. What a perfect gift to give to your guests if you’re hosting a dinner party, bridal shower, or a tea (or wine) party.
