Late Term and Child Loss

Memorial Candle?

Does anyone have a memorial candle personalized with your baby's information.  With our babies' first birthday coming up, I would really like to have a special candle to light for Bennett.  We have just used a blue candle in the past, but I want one with his name, etc on it.  If anyone has one, where did you get it?

    We also don't have a special personalized candle, instead I use a special vase and light a tea light in it every month on the 28th. But like mrsgerman said, I have seen many options on etsy. Hope you can find something special!

    I actually made a personalized candle off of a tutorial online.  It isn't perfect, but it feels special that I made it for my daughter.

  • I made candles to light on Christmas day - big pillar candles with their initials and ribbon.  Picture below.  I tried their names, but it didn't work out...

    I, too, would also like to have a candle with their names on them - but was thinking I might want an LED that will last "forever"...

    Good luck - hope you find something.
