Fabric-Draped Candle craft

1 large round candle
1/2 yard fabric
Liquid starch
Ribbon
Rubber band
Disposable bowl
Wax paper
Scissors
Low temperature glue gun

Cut a 24-inch circle of fabric. Pour starch into a bowl and submerge fabric in starch until it is saturated.

Squeeze out excess liquid. Smooth fabric face down over wax paper. Center candle on fabric. Smooth fabric up along the sides of the candle and place a rubber band over the bottom and up about 3 inches from the bottom. This will secure the fabric to the bottom 3 inches of the candle. Turn remaining fabric down and under, draping it in a pleasing manner. Let dry overnight. Attach a bow and ribbon with glue gun.
