Decide what you want to use your candle box for. Love, job,

patterns that supply they energy you want for the box.

use burning tool if wanted. Or you can paint some designs on
the box. If you are unsure of your

decorate the box. (Pictures cut outs can be used glued to the box in a
crazy quilt type pattern.) Allow the box to dry. Test the markers
to see if the spray will make them run (don't use children's
washable markers). You can decorte the box with markers if you want.
This is all up to you!

Make the same as all the boxes. However paint it green and decorate
