Painted Daisy Candle Tutorial

This painted daisy candle involves simple brush strokes to create daisy petals that are surrounding a circle. This is a fun way to decorate a candle while adding a whimsical charm to a room.

If you’re wondering what type of paint to use, in this project they suggest mixing a little dish soap to acrylic paint so that it will stick to the candle better.

Candle Painting Medium

On the other hand, DecoArt has a handy candle painting medium out. You just mix it in equal amounts with your paint before using. It adheres better and creates a protective layer so that the candle paint becomes more durable. There are more complex and detailed candle painting projects on DecoArt’s website if you’re interested.
