Bunny Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Man, I must watch that TV show too much.. Ok, but the question is, how'd they do that? It is a design on the wax or in the glass.Maybe gold leaf pressed in then container then the wax poured? http://www.mybestscentedcandles.com/site/1588821/product/139592 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candlesprite7 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 To me it looks like the painted the glass....I love that look though it is beautiful! I wish I could get a closer look.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 perhaps they poured in a bit of higher mp metallic wax, tilted it a few times; then filled with a solid color... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marika Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Looks like they reverse painted the glass and then poured the candleMari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Man Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Looks like painted glass to me.Making the wax do that would be to much time and not cost effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Look likes it's on the glass too. Gold leaf maybe. Where did I see the containers that could be finished a certain way? I'll probably never find it, but I do think the effect is on the glass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Whilst we're on the subject of how's it done, what about these, does anyone know how to get this effect?http://www.candlesupply.co.uk/swirl_candles.htmThis is the swirly ones near the bottomhttp://www.candlesupply.co.uk/pillar_candles.htmThey're all lovely but how on earth do they get the effect, c'mon folks, someone must know !

Rsvlbrat Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 Alot of work is how they did those! Those are awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted November 3, 2006 Share Posted November 3, 2006 my guess on the first ones is after filling the mold, drip liquid dye down the side and the heat of the wax will circulate the dye around. a cold water bath would stop the spreading of the dye on the surface edges since it would solidify them right away.
