Birthday Card Candle
Recycled Christmas/Birthday Cards
Melted Wax
Store Bought Candle
Paint brush
For this project you will need a store bought candle or one you have made your own to apply the card decal to.
Start by cutting out your design from the recycled christmas card and placing it onto you candle.
Melt some wax down and paint over the top of the card decal to adhere it to the candle. Concentrate on the edges to insure it sticks it down. Allow it to cool
Remember with embellished candles like these they should never be left unattended.
