This has been bugging me... Is it possible to..

Make a photo embedded candle, without the seamless mold ? by using something else? let me try to explain what i mean. say like a clear round or square ( large) glass container. i think it would look real pretty if you made it like you do using the mold but leave in the container, if this could be done i think the glasss would be pretty and it could be decorated on outside at top. Ok go ahead and tell me how dumb this question was LOL! but i still want your opinions on it

Possible, yes, plausible, no.

You could do it, but IMO it *could* pose a fire hazard because as the candle burns down there is nothing to prevent the pic from curling in, getting in the meltpool and then catching fire. I would think you would be better getting the water decals paper and then printing your own decal and putting that directly on the glass.

If you search the archived gallery you'll find examples of hurricanes made in bowls with unusual shapes. I know some were posted by Manolo in Greece. They had flowers, not photos. For a photo, you would probably have to use a glass votive cup.

Thanks, yes i thought a votive cup for sure, Devara and in a large container, i didn't think the wax with the embedded photo would melt , unless it was a smalll jar, i know i have seen something like this somewhere or a while back. was wanting to try making these, but had no mold just some nice large smooth round containers, guesss i will have to wait and order me a mold.
