( The bottom template will depend on your tealight. you need an opening for the on/off switch. I used a hole punch. For the top template I punched the scallop circle, folded it in fourths and determine how large of an opening you need for the flame.)
1) Adhere 6” strip to the candle.
2) punch bottom scallop circle using
bottom template (to turn tealight on /off). Adhere to bottom of tealight with
glue dots.
3) Apply Punch circle in center of the top
scallop. Using top template and a craft knife cut from the outside of the
template to the circle
