Step 1

Photocopy the picture. Use carbon paper as a backing. Stick your design and the carbon paper to the candle with masking tape.

Step 2

Firmly race the outline of the picture with a pencil or ball point pen.

Step 3

Remove the design and carbon paper. Use a candle pen to fill in the groove you have traced. Even pressure on the candle pen is the secret.

Step 4

Complete your design and leave it to dry for 24 hours.

Step 5

Show your candle to all your friends & family.
