Got wonky, tippy candles? Decorating for the holidays and you can’t get your candles to behave?

Here’s the first of my 12 Days of Holiday Decorating tips. You’re going to want to follow along so you don’t miss any of the good Christmas Decorating ideas I’ll be sharing right here every day until Christmas!

What You’ll Need

We need just ONE thing to solve this tipping problem! Soft polymer clay. You’ll need a clay that stays soft until it’s baked. And of course, we aren’t actually going to bake it. I found this clay here in a plethora of colors, so I can match ALLLLL my candle colors. HERE

But you can also just get silver HERE and gold HERE which will go with most candles. I use a lot of clear glass candle sticks, so matching the color of the actual candle itself works best for me.
