How to Make
- Paint a ceramic fairy house all over with a base colour and leave to dry. Paint around the top of the pot then fill in the details on the door and flowers and leave to dry. Paint a wooden coaster for the base and leave to dry.
- To make a petal, break off 2 wax squares, knead them into a ball then flatten to make a circle, about 4cm in diameter. Repeat to make 4 or 5 more petals in the same way then press around the curled centre.
- Shape 1 wax square into a leaf by making a flattened circle then squeezing the ends into points. Use the flat end of a modelling toll to press a pattern onto the leaf. Repeat to make more leaves then press onto the base of the rose.
- Gently press the rose onto your work surface to flatten the base.
- Cut a piece of wick 6-7cm in length. Push a cocktail stick into the centre of the rose to make a hole then carefully push the wick inside. Trim the wick if it looks too long.
