Casting floating candles

Anleitung No. 1759
Anleitung No. 1759     Difficulty: Beginner  Working time: 1 hour

Candles are a great decoration all year round and always make the atmosphere especially cosy. These pretty floating candles don't look only great - they are made in no time at all and are also great as a small present for a birthday or just in between.

For the small floating candles, put some eco-candle wax granulate in a melting pot. Let the wax melt carefully in a water bath. Now add some dye granules and mix everything. Fill the liquid colored wax into the mold and put the cut wicks into the mold shortly after

As a colourful eye-catcher in our example we have painted the edge of the zinc bowl with IncaGold. Let the paint dry well afterwards

Finally, fill the zinc bowl with water and let the finished candles float. Optionally you can spread some petals on the water.

A small gift with a great effect

Tip: The small candles are also ideal as a small gift. Simply wrap Satin ribbon them in a cellophane bag with a pretty one - and you have a great present for your loved ones.

This universal melting pot has a Ø of approx. 13.2 cm and a height of approx. 12.5 cm. It has a capacity of 1 litre and is made of aluminium with a plastic handle. Weight of the pot is approx. 275 grams. An instruction manual is on the packaging.

Gone are the days when you had to improvise! Here comes a helper for melting Wax for candles, casting chocolate, sugar masses or soap. Melting wax is easy and safe! The double-walled aluminium melting pot is filled with water at the side filling opening and closed tightly with the supplied plug. Now only heat it up on the hotplate or gas field and off you go.

The wax filled in the melting pot is immediately heated and melted by the water heated in the sides and under the base. This prevents the wax from burning or overheating. The water level should be checked and refilled from time to time. Due to the low weight the pot is easy to handle and not so heavy in the hand when pouring. This makes pouring wax or soap a safe thing and you can concentrate fully on pouring the moulds

Mit diesen gewachsten Kerzendochten wird die Herstellung von eigenen Kerzen ganz einfach. Die Dochte haben einen Ø von ca. 2,1 mm.

Es können Kerzen gegossen oder ein Gefäß mit Kerzensand befüllt werden. Runddochte besitzen ein hervorragendes Abbrennverhalten. Durch die gewachste Oberfläche geht der Docht eine gute Verbindung mit dem Kerzenwachs ein, was zu einem gleichmäßigen Abbrennverhalten führt.

Hübsch verpackt sind selbstgemachte Kerzen ein bezauberndes Geschenk für viele Gelegenheiten. Eine schöne Idee ist auch ein Bastelnachmittag mit Kindern, an dem (unter Aufsicht) Kerzen gegossen werden.

Die Effektfarbe “Inka-Gold“ ist auf Wasserbasis und eignet sich besonders gut für saugende Untergründe wie unbehandeltem Holz, Pappe und Terrakotta. Sie ist eine leicht aufzutragende, wachshaltige, pastöse Dekorfarbe mit elegantem, metallischem Glanz.

Inka-Gold trocknet bereits beim Polieren, ist nach der Versieglung mit Inka-Lack wischfest und witterungsbeständig. Die Effektfarbe wird mit einem Schwämmchen dünn und in kreisenden Bewegungen aufgetragen und auf Glanz poliert. Bei schwer zugänglichen Stellen z.B. bei 3D-Objekten, kann die Effektfarbe mit einem leicht feuchten Pinsel aufgetragen und nach dem Trocknen mit einem Schwämmchen poliert werden.

Um eine Produktverschmutzung zu vermeiden und für die Sicherstellung der Haltbarkeit, sollte Inka-Gold nicht direkt aus der Dose verarbeitet werden, sondern immer die benötigte Farbmenge vorab, z.B. mit einem sauberen Spachtel entnehmen.
