Cut & Carve Candles: Beautiful Candles to Dip, Carve, Twist & Curl [Paperback]

Dana Brooks (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 2004

From tapers with simple twisted ribbons of wax to an elaborate candle shaped like a lighthouse, these 20 cut-and-carve projects have a beautiful look all their own. Yet they’re simple to make: just dip a molded base candle into layers and layers of colored wax, then carve, twist, and curl patterns into the surface. Explore the many possibilities by learning all the basic cuts, from scrolls and bows to loops, and then combining them to create an infinite number of wonderful effects.

A friend of mine loaned me this book and I ended up buying my own copy! Very easy to follow and the candles are just fantastic. I used to see this type candle in malls when I was a kid and never thought I could make them.
