Projects and Ideas : Decaled Candle using Inkjet Decal Sheets

Have you ever tried embellishing a candle using an inkjet decal paper? Here is one which I did for a work colleague of mine whose son was going to be confirmed about 2 years ago. Using an inkjet printer the image was printed an inkjet clear decal paper. Once printed, I sprayed a Krylon acrylic crystal clear protective finish to protect the image. I sprayed the image three times and once it was totally dried I applied the decal to the candle as flat as possible after soaking it in water for about 30 seconds. I made sure that there were no air pockets and then left the application on the candle to dry.
