Wow! Thank you! I've been looking for a way to make a Christ candle for Advent. This worked PERFECTLY the first time! I found an image off of the Internet. Printed it to the right size onto the tissue paper on my laser printer. Wrapped it in parchment paper and got the hair dryer out. I cannot believe how easy this was. I probably saved myself $50.

awesome Jason! gotta love it when things turn out great like this!! that's why i shared this, bc we spent the $50 on a candle and ever since i've been doing my own! cheers Donna

This is SUCH a wonderful gift idea!!! I just made my boyfriend a few candles for our one year anniversary and it only costed me around 10$! If you’re in the US, the greaseproof wax paper she used is sold here but called parchment paper instead! I was hesitant using my printer on tissue paper but it worked wonderfully! The wax didn’t melt when I adhered the photo trace on either. So glad I found this video :) 10/10 would definitely recommend

Thank you. Worked great. I used a heat gun. It only takes a moment for the image to print onto them. It rapidly heats up and enough to melt the candle so anyone else using one remember that.

Hello, i have a question. What's the difference between printing on regular paper versus printing on tissue paper and transfering it on the candle? which has a more professional finish look?

@JunkJournalideas

5 жыл бұрын

!! hi Ola El Chihni !! the difference is...the normal paper will not disappear into the wax, you will see it because it is heavier/thicker paper. The tissue paper is very light you can see through it when you hold it up, so when you print on it and heat/fuse it to the candle it disappears into the wax making it look like there is no edge. it makes it look like you printed directly onto the candle. definitely the tissue paper more pro finish !! 🦋 cheers Donna

When you lay the tissue paper onto the candle....do you face the printed side towards the candle, or does it face towards you? I hope that makes sense.

@JunkJournalideas

5 жыл бұрын

!! hi Kelly !! great question, face the printed side towards you, happy creating cheers Donna

Great idea, looks lovely. My one tip would be do not cut to close to photo then use water and thin paint brush and draw round the photo with the water, then pull away with you fingers, it will leave fibers hanging which will blend the photo into the candle with no harsh lines around your photo. Thanks for sharing your video looks lovely

Does having the tissue paper on the candle affect how the candle burns? Like, would you still be able to burn the candle all the way down to the bottom?

@JunkJournalideas

7 жыл бұрын

!! hi Charlene !! The candle will burn fine because the paper is on the out side of the candle and not near the flame. also the tissue paper is 17gm which is very thin. The picture i used is not wrapped all the way around, it is a cut out close to the outline of the subject, so the tissue paper will melt down with the folds of wax. The flame remains in the center of the candle and at no time is near the outside edge of the candle (under normal circumstances) cheers Donna
