If you have been to a Pottery Barn or seen their add, they have some beautiful candles that have sheet music on them, but they are very pricey.  So, I made 3 of my own and they were really quick and easy to make and also inexpensive.

Here is what you will need for this project:
-3 Flameless Candles  (These were purchased at the Dollar Tree and they take AAA Batteries which you may have on hand, or you can also pick up at the Dollar Tree as well)
-Mod Podge and a brush to apply it
-An old Hymnal for the pages.  (You could use any old book or sheet music for this, also patterned paper, etc)

I love the idea, it is so neat! do you think I could use real candles for this?

I believe it would go onto real candles with the modpodge, but I am not sure if you would be able to burn them or not.

thank you, I think I might try getting real tea light candles and putting them in a glass, and putting the music paper on the glass. Thank you for the idea!

These are so pretty - I have some old, old sheet music that I have been wanting to do something with - this will be a great way to use it up! Thanks!
