Gnome Heart Candle

Create this easy to make Gnome Heart Candle

Holiday candles are one of my favorite things to decorate with. Although I don’t use real candles to decorate with, instead I use flameless candles with timers.

Flameless candles are safe as you don’t have to worry about them being knocked over and starting a fire. The ones with timers you can usually set them and forget them for a month or two.

After creating my Valentine Gnome Card, I decided to use the gnome and create a flameless candle. I will show you how to resize the gnome to add it and the hearts to the candle.

Some places you rent do not allow real candles, flameless candles are a great substitute and you can customize them to fit your decor by adding vinyl designs.

To get started you will need to download my Valentine Gnome Card in our free library.

Select all and ungroup.

Select the card and dotted line for score line and hide them by clicking on the eye next to them. Also select the letters for the words “Be Mine” and hide them.

Next select the solid hat for the gnome and hide it.

Select the heart and hit duplicate. I duplicated the heart 7 times in order to have 8 hearts for the candle.

Then I selected each heart and change the color. I made the hearts 4 different colors, in order to have 2 hearts of each color.

Next select the gnome and resize him to fit your candle

Once you have the number of hearts you want on your candle and your gnome is the correct size you are ready to cut them out of vinyl. Click on the “Make It” button and then click on continue.

****Please note you do not need to mirror the images as this is being cut out of regular vinyl and not HTV.****

Make sure to select the type of vinyl you are cutting out and cut out your gnome and hearts.
