Moving right along with the Halloween party planning with some good old crafting. I give you a simple bleeding candle with old script. The perfect detail for a creepy event.
What you'll need...
-taper candle
-red sealing wax
-scissors
-small flat paint brush
-Mod Podge (in matte finish)
-old script download printed on computer paper (available below)
To download, click on the image and choose "Save Image As"
Instructions
1. Wrap your script paper around the taper candle so that it overlaps about 1/4". Trim paper with scissors.
2. Using the paint brush, apply a layer of Mod Podge to the blank side of the script paper. Slowly wrap the paper around the candle, pressing and smoothing out wrinkles with your fingers. Apply another layer of Mod Podge on the printed side of the script paper. Let dry for 20 minutes.
3. Melt the red seal wax, allowing it to drip down the sides of the candle.
Enjoy!
