Materials:

• printing paper
• wax paper
• tracing paper
• candle
• tape
• glue
• scissors
• hair dryer
• printer

Directions:

Step 1

Line the tracing paper and the printing paper together and secure by taping just the edges. After this, print any image you like on the tracing paper. Once you’re done, cut out the image on the edge (you’ll only need the tracing paper with the image on it so you can discard the printing paper once you cut out the image.)

Step 2

Now, spread a little amount of glue on the back corners of the image, then place it on the candle. Next, take the wax paper, wrap it around the candle, and tape it to hold the image in place. Now, take the hair dryer and gently blow some hot air into the image. You will know it’s ready once the color starts to darken. Once done, peel off the wax paper and you’re done.
