Thankful Candle

Hi everyone, I've created a decorative candle with the help of my Proxxon tools.


Drawing the design on a of plywood, I used the Micro Bandsaw to cut the straight edges.


I also used the Scroll Saw to cut around the candle.


Once fully cut, I used the Delta Sander to sand down the candle.  The angled head allowed me to get into the tiny edges.


Using masking tape, I taped off the candle so I could paint the flame with gold metallic paint and the candle base with black metallic paint.


Once dry, I used glitter paint to paint the candle.


I wanted to add some decorative elements, so I went through my stash of flowers and pulled out a rose as well as leaves that would coordinate well with the candle.


Next, I used intricate die cut words with Rinea Gold Foiled Paper to add words to the base.


It now looks wonderful amongst my holiday decorations.




Thanks for stopping by.

Steph
