Flip the candle over and cut off any excess tracing paper along the sides of the candle. 

Cut out a rectangular piece of yellow or orange tissue paper the size of the flame and glue it to the back of the flame. 

Cut off the excess tissue paper along the edge of the flame. 

Glue pieces of tissue paper in any shape and color onto your candle.
