• Place the wick in the center of the candle mold or container. Use a wick holder or adhesive to keep it in place. Ensure the wick is tall enough for the final height of your candle.

Step 3: Melt the Wax

• If using a pillar candle, skip this step. For wax flakes, melt them in a double boiler or microwave-safe container following the package instructions. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature and avoid overheating.

Step 5: Pour the First Layer of Wax

Step 6: Arrange Dried Flowers

• Once the first layer is slightly set but still tacky, arrange dried flowers on top. Press them gently into the wax, ensuring they stick well. You can create patterns or cover the entire surface.

Step 7: Pour the Remaining Wax

• Carefully pour the remaining melted wax into the container, covering the dried flowers. Leave some space at the top to avoid overflowing.

Step 8: Let the Candle Cool

• Allow the candle to cool and harden completely. This may take several hours. Trim the wick to the desired length.

Step 9: Smooth the Surface (Optional)

• Use a heat gun or hairdryer on low heat to smooth the surface of the candle if needed. Be cautious not to melt the dried flowers.

Step 10: Trim Excess Wick

• Trim the wick to about half an inch above the candle’s surface.

Step 11: Final Touches

• Once the paint is dry, carefully peel off the painter’s tape to reveal crisp lines in your design.

Step 8: Continue the Design

• Repeat steps 4 to 7 until you have completed your entire design. Allow the paint to dry completely before moving on to the next step.

Step 9: Attach the Fabric to the Lampshade Frame
