Transforming a Dollar Store candle

When I was working on my daughter's party, I was looking for ways to create cheap but beautiful party decor.  I knew I wanted to use candles on the tables, but I wanted them to look chic  but chic can sometimes mean expensive and my budget was tight.
I was in the dollar store when inspiration struck.  Why not use the plain white prayer candles that sells for $1 or less?

I purchased the candles for $1each, you can find them at the dollar or convenience stores and supermarkets across the country. They should look something like this picture below.

I, then printed a monogram on vellum paper, that I created for free from wedding chicks.

Then I cut the paper to the size of the candle and attached it using double stick tape 

and Voila Beautiful Personalized Candles for a cost of $1.10 each !!
