Personalized & Perfect: DIY Charm Necklaces & Wax Candles

Nothing says girls day more than a fun day spent together! Grab your favorite pink drink (we grabbed Poppi’s Strawberry Rosé & Strawberry Lemon), some fun crafts, cute cookies, some flowers, & turn on some good tunes for a Galentine’s Day worth remembering!

Galentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to grab a couple girlfriends and get together! In this blog I’m gonna walk you through creating two different easy crafts (for us gals who might not be too crafty)! From charm necklaces that show a little bit about yourself to cute wax candles for your mantel! Grab all the supplies you need here, pour a Poppi (or glass or wine), and let’s get crafting!

Let’s get into DIY Charm Necklaces first! I bought this necklace kit from Amazon plus a few extra jewelry tools since there was 3 of us (I’d highly recommend grabbing extra tools so you’re not waiting on each other) along with some colorful charms!

A DIY Necklace Charm bar was so fun and easier than we anticipated!! The necklace kit from Amazon supplies you with jump rings & clasps! To get started we all picked our chain and measured it around our necks for our length of choice and cut it with the jewelry tools. Sorting thru all the charms was one of the best parts! We designed a necklace for a friend a few states away and picking charms we thought described her was so fun!

Next, use the jewelry tools to carefully add the clasp using jump rings! We held the necklace in half for a measurement for where to add our first charm (do this if you have an odd # of charms, if even you can leave the center open and put one on either side). Then space the charms out as far as you’d like and you’ve got yourself a custom charm necklace!

Following the charm necklaces we wanted to create some fun wax candles that we’d seen on TikTok! The mini tea lights we used were pastel so the wax appeared light so Brooke and Alli layered it and I resorted to using tie dye markers for a more colorful candle!

The supplies you’ll need are SIMPLE! We grabbed these candles, tea lights, and brushes! Head on over to Pinterest if you need some design ideas and get started! Dip your brush in wax and start painting your candle!
