Material list

Pour these beautiful organic wax candles with wooden wick. They look really decorative in the metal tins and can also be given as gifts.

This is how it works:

1. Melt the organic wax in the melting pot and colour it with colouring granules.

2. Put the wooden wicks into the holders and place them in the metal tins.

3. Pour the melted wax into the tins and leave to cool. Then shorten the wicks with a scissors.
4. Cut strips of paper to fit around the tin and punch out circles with a hole punch.

5. Place the clear stamp on the acrylic block. Using a sponge, dab pasty application milk onto the stamp and stamp onto the paper. Allow to dry until the paste looks translucent.

Cover these areas with metal leaf. Using a nylon brush, carefully brush the metal leaf into place and remove any excess metal.

6. Stick the bands and circles to the tins with craft glue.
