Make your own Advent candlestick.

You´ll need:
A (steel)tray
4 candles
Hobby color
Printer
Stencils
Scalpel or a Sharp knife

1. Go to the store and buy: Candles(15 cm), A tray you like, Hobby color and Stencils.

2. Print out numbers from your computer(I´ve used a Font called: Arial Black, Size 250).

3. Cut out the numbers(put the print in back of the stencil and start to carefully carve along the lines). I had my spouse to do the job. I´m not very good at things that claims this kind of concentration and precision:)!

4. Ones that is finished, tape the stencil on the candle and start to apply the color on it.

5. Release the tape and stencil carefully and let dry(hobby color dries very fast so if you would like to correct something, do it fast! I had to correct some of mine more than once before I got them right:)).

6. Go for a refreshing walk in the woods and cut some Spruce sprays to bring back home with you.

7. Put the candles in place and decorate with your spruce branch cut into smaller sections.

8. Put your very own Candlestick in a favourite spot in the house, where you can enjoy it upcoming Sundays!
