Foil Trimming

Apart from candles you will also have to have foil, spangles, beads and beadlets, pins, and, of course, your imagination. There are two techniques of fastening the foil onto a candle. The first one is to put a foil cut-out onto a candle and press it with a teaspoon which has been heated up in a blast of steam of your kettle; the foil will stick to slightly molten wax.

The second way is to put molten wax onto a back side of foil with a teaspoon. Spangles, beads and beadlets are put using red-hot pins. If pins are glass headed, the candle becomes even more beautiful. So, you are to cut out figurines of the foil to trim your candles. Fasten them onto a candle with one of the above mentioned methods. These candles look luxuriously, and you can trim them as you wish: with spangles, beads or beadlets.
