Instructions in 6 steps A cash gift for communion or confirmation - creatively made with Raysin casting powder and wood. And the Dip-Dye candle is a true eye-catcher here.

Besides the articles listed below, you also need: Mixing vessel, dipping vessel, poss. sandpaper, acrylic block, stamp cleaner, scissors, Stanley knife, hole punch pliers

And this is how it works:

Step 1

Mix the white Raysin casting powder with water according to the instructions given and fill the silicone casting mould Fish with the resulting casting compound. After about 180 minutes drying time, demould it.

Step 2

Fill a narrow, tall vessel to about ¾ with wax pellets. Then, heat them in a bain-marie until all the wax pellets have melted. However, make sure the water doesn't boil. Crush the colour pigment with a knife and mix it evenly by stirring with a wooden stick. The more colour pigments are added, the more intense the colour shade.

Step 3

Now take the taper candle, dip it into the dyed, liquid wax and let it dry. By dipping it several times and allowing to dry, the colour shade becomes more intense. As soon as each coloured layer of dipped wax has dried, decorate the candle with one of the motifs from the transfer foil “Fische, Leuchtturm & Co”.

Step 4

Apply the Clear Stamps stamp to the turquoise “Wunscherfüller” paper and cut it out in the shape of a gift tag. Pierce a hole with the hole punch pliers, then tie the gift tag to the test tube with the white cord.

Step 5

Arrange conveniently the wooden blocks on the wood board and affix them firmly by means of the glue fix pen.

Step 6

Decorate your tray with the candle, the Raysin fish and the test tube. Wrap the raffia ribbon around the tray several times. And, as a crowning touch, stick two wooden fish onto the ribbon.
