Haven’t tried this yet but maybe a heating pad for a snake cage under the muffin pan. No open flame in work space and not gonna burn you if bumped. I’ll give it a try and let you know. Thanks for the pros and cons here. They are beautiful. ❤
acrylic paint is generally considered non toxic to my knowledge. using a heat gun or open flame definitely isn’t as safe, but it has a different result
Some one on another channel says that acrylic paint contains plastic and that burning plastic releases toxic fumes.True.A better alternative for painting candles is painting them with encaustic paint (tinted wax paint)
@JellyAndPickle thats what i was thinking! I am in the middle of moving and have too many unfinished products to try atm... if you try it let me know how it goes 😊
I melt wax in a coffee cup or small ceramic bowls on a candle warmer. I put the cups on a heat pad for many colors.
This is genius!! Will be doing this if I do this craft again! 😁

That's a great idea! I was just using what I had around the house, but yes probably a better idea not to have open flames! :)
is this safer than acrylic paint?

Yes it would be! Acrylic paint is only ok if you don’t plan on burning the candles!

I've always paint on my candle projects with just wax and they turn out great. The designs are also 3D just like you said 😍
It’s such a fun way to add your own style to every candle! 😁
BRILLIANT ‼️😊
I love this video
Genius
So they’re okay to burn right?
Yep perfectly safe! 😁
شكرا لك على الطريقة كنت ابحث عنها
Has anyone tried drawing the the wax and then wrapping it round the candle and then hairdryering?
😮 that could work! Draw with crayons (I guess onto non stick paper which might be tricky)! But worth a try!!

you should mix with soy wax much smoother
Will have to try that next time!!
Yup exactly
I've tried it, it works perfectly well
