I’ve been waiting patiently all week for Hermano Leon, a wonderful Catholic clip art site, to revise his Paschal Candle art for this year. This morning I decided to drop an email and inquire as to its whereabouts. H. Juan José thanked me for the reminder and the 2012 candle art is now online.
Each year, we make a very simple paschal candle by printing out this beautiful art, and wrapping it around a tall glass votive. Secure the art along the back seam with tape or glue and you are done. Don’t print the art from this blog post — click through to Hermano Leon for a beautiful high res printable!
Because by your Holy Cross, you have redeemed the world!

Printed and wrapped! I’ve been waiting for this. I’m so glad Hermano Leon created an update!

Hello Evann,
My daughter’s Little Flowers Girls group would like to do a Paschal candle for our domestic churches.
The ages of the girls are from 5-8 so we won’t be making the candles ourselves nor carving them.
We would like to use the beautiful wrap art made by Hermano Leon. Do you know if he will be making an updated version of the Paschal wrap for 2013?
We would love to use it for the girls’ project as Lent nears.
Blessings and peace,
Lori

Sounds like a great project, Lori!
I am sure Hermano Leon will make an updated Paschal candle wrap, and when he does I will be sure to post the link.
Thanks for visiting!

I look forward to getting the link and I know the girls will be excited to do this project.
Thanks.
pax,

Is there a paschal candle wrap for 2014?

As soon as it is available, I will post it. Usually much closer to Easter.
