Today I’m gonna share with you one of the hardest surface to apply vinyl on.
candles
I’m making Baptism candles and wanted to share the tutorial with you.
Let’s see what we need
Materials
Cutting machine (I craft)
Laptop / Tablet / mobile
Software, Loklik idea studio
Cutting sticky mat
Vinyl
Weeding tools
Transfer tape
Candle
If you like to decorate the candle then prepare the deco materials.
Now let’s go to the idea studio and start making the design.
I didn’t need much of elements all I needed was a cross which I found in the library once I wrote cross and found it.
I wrote the name and what’s needed then changed the font
After I chose a font I liked I had to combine it together and chose subtract crossover
Now as the font was too thin I made an offset
With 2.0 distance
Then I sorted my project into colors and adjusted the sizes.
Now let’s set our
Cut settings
As I’m using two different types of vinyl I needed two different types of settings
Glossy permanent vinyl plastic career
Chrome permanent vinyl
I cut every color separately
After the cutting process is finished let’s come to weeding
Actually the weeding was so smooth it took me seconds to weed
vinyl application
As I wanted to add some decorations I put the deco first so I could know the empty space I’m left with to apply my vinyl.
Then I took a piece of transfer tape stick it to my clothes to make it less sticky because it’s very difficult to transfer a vinyl onto a waxed surface
So I started one piece at a time
Now the trick is to remove the transfer tape very slowly and press the vinyl with your fingers to stick to the candle.
You can remove it from one side to the other so you can press every letter with your other hand / fingers
The cross I put it with my tweezers or even used my hands it was easy
Or you can also remove the transfer tape from the top again slowly slowly
Now you are left with this pretty elegant candle to celebrate your occasion
