Step-by-step
Step 1
Using a test sheet, decide on a pattern and practice drawing it. If you prefer not to paint freehand, simply trace your design onto paper, place inside the glass and copy your designs directly on the outside of the glass.
Step 2
Once you’ve finished decorating, let it dry for a short while and then simply pop in your candle.
