Their DIY projects come in a cute, sturdy box which is perfect for giving just the way it is, or it is just waiting for your own creativity!  This is our last of three projects and I was excited that these Gilded Votives was the project that I would get to work on.

After opening my kit, I was excited that they were two colors of pens but then that posed an immediate dilemma!  What color did I want to use to make my project?  Silver?  Or gold?  And then a song from my long ago girls camp days came to mind:

Make new friends, but keep the old.  One is silver and the other’s gold.

That song answered my dilemma and I made both!  Now just to avoid any confusion this DIY Gilded Votive kit sells for a reasonable price of $16.00 and comes with three votives.  I did receive four votives because I was given one to practice on but these were so quick and easy to make that I was able to use my practice votive.

All you need to do to make these votives is to prime your pen by pushing it down on a scratch piece of paper to get the ink flowing, then you are ready to create!  These votives took me around 20 minutes to make which gives you a maximum result for a minimal effort!  What could be better than that?

I gave these particular votives as a wedding gift this weekend.  I don’t know about you, but some of my favorite gifts have been those that were handmade by the giver.  The gifts made with love are the ones that I cherish the most.   If you give these as gifts, I know that your recipient will cherish them too.

These were so fun to make and I am happy to report that these Gilded Votives Rock!
