How to Make Faceted Candles

If you love geometric shapes or you just want to jump on board with the latest trend in candle making, then this is the spot for you. You can print up some designs that will serve as paper molds for your candles. You just print the mold, then you cut, glue it in certain spots to create the mold. You melt the wax and simply pour the wax into your homemade mold which takes on the shape of the faceted candles pictured here.

Key Takeaways:

• First, you should use the template for the Archimedean solid and the truncated tetrahedron.
• Secondly, you should cut along the dotted line and it is important to use a cutter so that the cuts can be precise.
• The tabs should be glued together in their numbered order until the truncated tetrahedron is finished.
