Navy Blue Beeswax Americana Grungy Battery Operated Tapers

~~ Was being creative and came up with these Navy Blue Beeswax Americana Grungy Battery Operated Taper Candles~~ -
These were hand dipped in 100% beeswax with navy blue color wax added. I grungied up a small american flag with my grungy mixture and spices and wrapped it around the candle with jute...These came out great...The picture looks more like a greenish blue but they are a blue...they look great with the grungy flag .... these will look awesome in your favorite candle holders or just sitting in your favorite bowls or with your favorite dolls....I sure you will just love these...
The can be found on my website: backintymeprimitives.com - thinking about including one of these in my Giveaway....

" Beeswax Belsnickle Santa's "

~~ I know your thinking that I got to be crazy even thinking about Christmas when it's 90 degrees in some states...lol...I had some left over blacken beeswax that I got from Deb Turner -~ from Crows Creek Primitives~~ which was awesome to you use...I just love her beeswax!!! it's 100% pure... ..
I had some left over after making my blacken grungy taper candles so I said why don't I use it on the belsnickle molds that I had!!! so I did and here it is... Hope you like them......I used a old candle that I melted down and that is the brownish color belsnickle...
These would look awesome in a bowl with greens during the holidays.......

Black Oblong Wooden Tray W/Grungy Prim Labels

~~I just love these Grungy Prim labels from Yankee Lane Primitives......I took some of these labels and added them on a black oval trays and this is how they came out...I think they look very prim with the grungy label..The prim label "Buttons" I added some old buttons that my mom used to collect..She had a antique can full...anything that had a button on it she would cut it off and save it....Love these buttons now!!!!lol
