Nancy Henning shares this project from StencilSearch.com. I love the stencil idea because I can not draw anything that is recognizable. For this project you will need a few simple things.
- Plain White Candle
- Rubbing Alcohol
- Candle Painting Medium
- Acrylic Paint
- Stencil
- Stencil Brushes
- Stencil Adhesive
- Rubber Bands
- Blue Tape
- Paper Towels
I found the brushes and paint at Michael’s craft store. No matter how many paper towels I purchase, we always run out right away so I keep a lot of rags on hand. I’m not sure what the family keeps using them for and not sure that I want to know.Nancy suggests finishing your project in melted beeswax. A pricey idea, but a good one nonetheless.
