Hello, in this class, we are going to learn how to make a free design for a first birthday candle. This is going to be so much fun because you can create almost anything you want. I suggest to think in the person who is going to blow the candle and what he or she likes the most. Then go to Pinterest or internet and look for some inspiration. So then you have to start to make your sketch in a paper, I decided to make a name. So I'm going to show you with this example what you need to take care of.

First, you have to think about the thickness of the letters of or your design, you have to make it at least one finger thickness so the candle won't break. Then the process of cutting is going to be very fast. So we have to decide where we're going to put the good sticks and how many of them. For example, my design is horizontal And I think I need two sticks to to support the weight of the comma. Third, we need to think how many weeks we are going to put and where we are going to put them. A good trick about this is to make a circle.

So you have to give some space between one week to the other. I think for example, four weeks will work perfect on this design. test at the end, when we need to get our design pulled around the draw. The first part of this process is going to be similar from the video before that we have before. So we have to put some realist agent to all this interface from the all trade that we are going to use. And if we if we don't have a realization just you can use a coup coil.

Then we have to prepare the weeks. And finally, we'll have to drop the paraffin already melt in the tray. We have to wait until it gets so packed and please don't Go away, because it takes five or 10 minutes. It depends on the temperature of your house. When we see that the paraffin is already a pack, we can start putting very very soft our design, I like to put it in the middle, because it's going to be easier to cut it. Don't worry about the rest of material because we can melt it again and used for a new combo.

And now I'm going to show you a trick about how to know when the paraffin is ready to start a cut. When you make a card with a cutter, and it's not bloody, just a perfect and clean cat, it's time to start using it, I mean no juicy, perfect cut. So it's going to be very, very easy because the briefing is so soft and the paper is going to guide you I just use a regular paper. I like to cut all the design around very carefully. I think it took me 10 minutes to start cutting and just to finish the camera in 10 minutes I did it. So you've got all around the design.

And then the best thing is to take away the pieces that we don't need. Just the way I'm showing you making it into little pieces. taking it away, it breaks because the purpose is to I don't worry, you can take it and wait a little longer. When you have a little detail details, like the IE sometimes it's better to use a stick in Did the cutter to make these little holes now you have to take care of the little details and then we have to separate the complete design, how to yourself with the cutter. Make sure it's all separate from detail is from the tree. And then we have to put our week there good.

Remember that when you leave the site to get cold, it's going to remain these positions. So please take care of the wood sticks. You had to make them straight and that's all you have your own design in the combo
