Paint by numbers, on a candle.
peel. paint. repeat. or don't.
a numbered peel-off wrap, pots of brushible candle paint and a candle to paint on. peel a number, dab the colour, peel the next. numbers to get you started, no rules about where you end up.
they're here!
The candle kits
three steps. that's the whole manual.
How it works
-
Press on the wrap
wrap it round the candle and rub it down. the numbers face out.
-
Peel a number
lift the piece marked 1. the bare wax underneath is your shape.
-
Dab the paint
sponge on colour 1, let it dry, peel the next number. repeat until it's done.
swap a colour. go off the numbers. it's your candle now.
little reminders
“You don't make mistakes, just happy little accidents.”
Why paint a candle?
- i create.
- i make mistakes.
- i make again.
- i make something mine.
that's the brushible (with an i) way. and the hardest part of all of it is the first mark on a blank anything.
a candle is a tiny canvas that doesn't stay still. the wrap holds the picture for you, so you only have to hold the sponge. somewhere around the fourth piece you stop following and start deciding. that's the good stuff. that's why i make these.
numbers not your thing?
Grab candle paint and freestyle
no wrap needed. pick up a pot of brushible candle paint and make the candle something wild, something quiet, something weird.
