How to wrap a candle with fabric gift wrap

Wrapping a candle with fabric gift wrap is simple using this rolling technique. It works beautifully for candles and other long cylindrical gifts, creating a secure, neatly wrapped finish without tape or scissors.


How to wrap a candle or cylindrical gift with reusable fabric gift wrap


Wrap your candle step by step

  1. Place the candle or cylindrical gift on one corner of the fabric gift wrap and begin rolling the fabric around it.
  2. Continue rolling until you reach the far corner of the fabric.
  3. Take the fabric at either end of the gift and tie each end securely.
  4. Adjust the fabric and knots until you are happy with the finish.

 

Make it your own

For an extra thoughtful finish, tuck a little greenery, dried flowers or seasonal foliage into the folds, or use ribbon or string you already have to add your own detail.

 

Choosing the right size for a candle

A Medium 45 × 45 cm Eazywrap is a good choice for a regular one-wick candle, while a Large 70 × 70 cm wrap is better suited to a larger three-wick candle or similarly sized cylindrical gift.
