ScentsandMore Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I am going to make some Christmas tarts and need to do a little painting on them. I have never painted candles before. I assume you need paint just for candles. If so, where can you purchase it from? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PamR Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Please be sure to test burn. If you are just painting tarts, you are probably ok, but the acrylic paint CAN catch fire if it comes into direct contact with the wick.Pam R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motiflady Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Cadence Candle Paint is new on the market made in Turkey. I have found 11 different metallic colors. You can also use Alcohol ink to paint candles it's safe to burn after it drys. The alcohol evaporates and all that is left is the pigment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
