Some stones are said to have healing effects, like calmness and serenity. That is why stones are often used as decoration to radiate peace and quiet. In our decoration example, the stones were cast and partly transformed into candlesticks. The crafting of the stones and the painting is a calming self-occupation, where you can forget the fast everyday life and relax.

Cover the upper edge of a candle nozzle with hot glue and place it upside down in the silicone form stones. Before you do this, you should test which stone mould is deep enough for the spout. Stir the concrete with water to a creamy mass according to the package instructions and pour the concrete mass into the mould

After about 4 hours drying time, carefully remove the stones from the mould. After the complete drying time unevenness can be removed with Sandpaper be removed. Paint the stones as desired with Handicraft paint and set noble accents with gold leaf. For the shimmering gold leaf, apply a little investment milk with a brush and place the Leaf metal to the desired position. With a soft brush you paint everything firmly. Glue some stones on top of each other with assembly glue

Finally, the candles are decorated Goldwith Inca. These are placed in the candle nozzle with adhesive wax plates.
