The_Dallas_Texas_Dean Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 OK...I KNOW this is WAY out of my element, and like I really NEEDED something else to keep my hands busy :rolleyes2 ....so here they are.....my first 6 carved candles. If you squint your eyes they don't look too bad LMAO. Bruce...if you see this, PLEASE "X" out immediately and save us both the embarrassment to YOUR craft! Have to say, it is a lot of fun but I don't have a clue what to do with all these things...OH I KNOW.....they will be for THOSE relatives for Christmas;) !!!!
