I'm making a candle mat for "Woman's Gift" for Christmas with my family.  The mat will be about 6x8 rectangle, looking just like a mug rug.

I googled candle mat and what came up was mats that are round.  But who's to say that a candle mat can't have four 90 degree edges??

pattern is from conniekresin.com

Our last 2014 Christmas is this weekend. ....

I loved this idea for gift wrapping using two different craft paper wraps.   
The pressies were for our 2 great-grands.  They tore into them.  
Their 7 year old boy-cousin they brought actually commented on the wrap.
He liked it!!  I was tickled that this young child was noticing the effort <3
