candlesprite7 Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Hi all! I havent posted anything since my last experiment, which smelled great but looked bad...lmao...So I thought I would post these pillars I am working on for a girlfriend of mine...Pillars for my friends kids who are in taekwondo, they have the Songham Star and their names on them. I am very happy with these....I also have 4 more to make...hopefully my lettering will get better...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzie Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Kim, they are just going to love those. They look really great. Lettering is something I am just not game to do and yours look so perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesprite7 Posted May 26, 2006 Author Share Posted May 26, 2006 I did the lettering the same way with the embossing stylus....but they are still hard to get straight when filling them in...i have 4 more of these to do, i bet by then I will be a pro...hahahahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharyl55 Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 The kids will love them. I think your lettering looks great. Guess I'm going ot have to get an embossing stylus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Man Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Those look great to be hand painted.You could print them out on water slide transfers for a crisp clear look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donita Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 I can tell that they took a lot of patience and a steady hand. I love your candles.....I have some designs that I want to try....I know it is going to be hard. Very nice work. Donita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlesprite7 Posted May 27, 2006 Author Share Posted May 27, 2006 Thanks so much Donita! I have some Celtic knotwork I havent dared try yet, they are soo complex....as far as the steady hand, I was trying to decorate my FIL's cake for his retirement party and cant do lettering worth anything today...LOLI had my arm propped on a box so I could just move my hand and not have to worry about my whole arm...LOL..I'm soo glad I know how to improvise!
