Glenda,
I get side tracked every now and then,
Don't be afraid to yell, HEY!!!!
For the waxed leaves,
I have a neighbor who sends them to her
sister in Florida to remind her of up North
and fall time.
My friend puts them in her windows at a day care she has... (*make sure the window's not a hot one.)
You can also do the placemats that you do with your old Christmas cards,
Crafts/ Placemats Scroll about 1/2 way down...
Put them in there and have a cute little homemade place mat for each person..
Just save them in a keepsake box or a hope chest, for a time remembered...
Or glue them to an acid free paper for keeping...
If you're crafty at making center pieces with styrofoam wreaths and candles, they make a lovely addition to the middle of your table
****BUT keep them down far enough from the candle, OBVIOUSLY, so THEY don't burn***
Or just a wreath of them in the fall time on the wall. Styrofoam, cardboard, etc. they have so many varieties out there now adays!!!
Njoynit,
I would imagine you could use them for ORNAMENTAL CANDLES, But not sure for the ones that a person would burn....HATE TO SAY YES, BECAUSE IT IS A BURNABLE MATERIAL!! But if you made ones, just to sit in your corner in a living room or such?????
Would be up to the individuals' own choice......
If I did the candles with the leaves, I'd put the melted wax in and then with a push stick I'd push the leave into it and hold it against the sides for a bit.
Weezie
