The master will tell you how to make original, beautiful candles from the bushes from paper towels. These candles, I think, suit for Halloween holiday, but you can paint them with bright colors, with sparkles, for Christmas holidays. In any case, the idea is very interesting!
Happy viewing!
You will need:
- plastic candles-tablets on the battery;
- adhesive gun and rods for it;
- Cardboard round sleeve from paper towels;
- Knife stationery, pencil, scissors, eraser and ruler;
- cardboard sheet;
- Acrylic paints: black and white.
Tassels and a small piece of sponge, molar tape.
For a start, take a cardboard sleeve and get it into several parts
We carry out the line and cut off.
We got a blank for a future candle. Cut the edges with scissors to be smooth.
Since the envelope button is located at the bottom, too long the foundation should be done inexpedient, otherwise it just will not be able to turn on the flame.
Then we take a sheet of cardboard and cut the strips about 2 cm wide.
We apply hot glue on the candle-tablet and begin to wind up cardboard strips to zoom in diameter.
Now it does not fail and keeps well in the workpiece.
Cutting on top of the excess wound cardboard, we apply glue and insert into the sleeve.
Preheated adhesive guns begin to apply "waxing lodges" on the candle.
Also applied several layers with glue on top around the perimeter, as if bleeding the flame in the wax.
When the glue on the candle is completely cooled, we make uneven edges / leaps. To do this, we drip hot glue on the top, mahams or blow, so that the glue is faster than cooled and was not so liquid.
Then we turn down the candle down - the adhesive begins to stretch, creating uneven edges.
You can also turn over, but in the side, the interesting effect is also obtained. These are as a result of the candles turned out.
If everything suits, then we wait until the glue is dry and start painting a candle. At first, you need to take a small piece of molar tape and stick the flame to be accidentally staining. We take the black acrylic paint, well, or any other on your choice, and begin to paint the entire candle in a few layers.
When the paint is completely dried and you painted everything in one tone, pass to the next stage of the finish.
We will need a small piece of sponge and Belil.
We apply a little paint on the palette and dip a sponge into it, then begin to tonnate speakers with legens.
Do not paint everything completely white paint, but only slightly, making the focus on the edges of the height and some tops. If necessary, tun the unopened places with a brush.
That's all, candles are ready. Thank you for looking at, I hope it was interesting and will be useful in the future!
