My daughter made this beautiful DIY Prayer Box and candle set for her Mother In Law who is going through a hard time right now.  I thought it was such a great idea and it turned out so well, I thought I would share it!

This would make a perfect gift for any occasion!  I could see giving this as a wedding gift, confirmation, graduation, birthday, Christmas, anything!
