Preparation
The candles are created using the "dip marbling" technique. Marbling is a particularly pleasant creative pleasure, but it can cause paint splashes and drips.
Therefore, first protect your workplace and your hands from paint splashes. Use disposable gloves for this and preferably also the VBS handicraft mat.
Attach a piece of warp yarn to the wick of each stick candle that you want to marble. You can use this yarn to hang your candles to dry after the marbling process.
Also prepare a hanging device for these candles and take the precaution of protecting the floor underneath from paint splatters. This could be a coat hanger on a ceiling hook, for example.
For marbling, you will need an old container that is large enough to dip the candles in. An unused bucket, for example, is suitable. Please note that any paint residue cannot be removed later.
