Jojo T. Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Hi again, Here are some of my painted candles which I have just finished. (Painted as in dye chips melted onto a finished candle with a gas torch.) Fragrances are Pink, Pink Petals, Pink Peppercorn and my blend of Orange Sandalwood and Cinnamon. The scratched crayon top candles are fragranced Victoria Rose and I have decorated them with some bracelets I made. Your comments and feedback are welcomed!

sharyl55 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Awesome as always. I love you you paint with the torch. Would love to try it but would probably burn the house down. Your painted candles remind me of abstract paintings. The bracelets are a nice touch. Can't figure out how you keep them on but they look lovely.
