Mozzie Posted April 4, 2007 Author Share Posted April 4, 2007 I have some of that clear paper they use for printing for overhead projectors' date=' is it that sort of thing?I[/quote']NO!!!! It's called waterslide decal paper. If you do a websearch you'll find that there are quite a few suppliers around the place. You print your image (text) on the decal paper and then soak it in water for about a minute. You then slide the decal (hence the name) off the backing sheet and onto your candle. If you have an inkjet printer you'll also need some kind of sealer so that the ink doesn't wash off in the water (just ask me how I know. LOL). If you have a laser printer, so much the better as no sealant is required. HTH. Mozzie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
