Instructions in 5 steps Put the stamped transfer foil onto the pillar candle and allow to dry well out. Your shiny X-mas gnome greetings are ready!

Besides the articles listed below, you also need: Small bowl with lukewarm water, Soft cloth or paper towel, Baker’s twine or any other decorative ribbon,

And this is how it works:

Step 1

Stamp the motif onto the shiny side of the transfer foil, and let it dry well out.

Step 2

Then cut out the stamped motif with a narrow edge along its outline and lay it in a lukewarm water for about 30-60 seconds until the carrier foil begins to detach from the foil.

Step 3

Then carefully take the motif out of the water with the carrier foil and slide it onto the candle.

Step 4

Use a soft cloth or paper towel to dab off the water drops and carefully smooth out any creases. The motif can still be easily slided and adjusted in the first few minutes. Drying time: approx. 6 hours, best overnight.

Step 5

To make your candle even more beautiful, you can wrap a baker’s twine/ribbon around the bottom of the candle.

Caution: Do NOT coat the candle with candle varnish, as this will dissolve and fade the stamped motif.
