I never stopped to think about the work that goes into handcrafting candles. This Dutch Garden candle takes time and skill to make and sells for about $40.00. I'd almost hate to burn it.

But I don't agree that carved candles are tacky as a rule. Baroque and lush, yes, but not necessarily tacky.
I think these styles are a lot more indicative of what I like about carved candles: http://www.handcarvedcandlesfbg.com/1809087.html
There was skill in the making of the candle though, and I give a head nod to that... but the rest... yeesh.
But back on topic, this is simply amazing! The amount of skill required is immense... I wonder how many candles she had to waste before managing to make a perfect one.
