Tutorial with Lorrie: Tissue Paper Candles + New at Jessica Sprague
Good morning! We hope your holiday season has been wonderful thus far. Lorrie from our digital team has created the most beautiful candles we wanted to share with you before Christmas is over, so before I show you the new product at Jessica Sprague, check out this amazing tutorial.
Happy Holidays everyone! It’s Lorrie here and I’ve got a quick and easy gift idea for your friends, family and all those special people in your lives. These tissue paper candles are super easy to make. All you need is a plain white (or light colored) candle, a piece of wrapping tissue paper, a couple straight pins or tacks and a hot air gun (or blowdryer), and your favorite Lori Whitlock digital elements!
Step one: Measure your candle and create your design in Photoshop, Silhouette Software or whatever program you choose. My candle was 6″ tall and 3″ around, so I made my design 6″ tall and about 9-1/2″ wide so that I would have a slight overlap.
Next, cut out a piece of tissue paper slightly smaller than 8-1/2″ x 11 and secure it to a piece of printer paper using scotch tape across the top edge.
Make sure you feed the end with the tape into your printer first and orient the paper so that the image will print on the tissue paper. Print your image on the tissue paper, then remove the tissue paper and trim your image (it doesn’t have to be perfect).
Wrap the image around the candle and secure with push pins, straight pins or tacks. Using your heat gun with a constant moving hand start heating the tissue paper. You will see it will become glossy. Keep moving, it happens quickly. The tissue paper will be absorbed by the wax and disappear leaving on the image behind.
We also have something new at JessicaSprague this week. This beautiful product is 30% off this week.
