ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to upload these tutorials, they are really geat! I just have a hard time trying tu burn the cord at the knots, du you have any advice? Greetings from Germany, Leonie
ReplyDeleteHi Leonie,
Deleteif the problem is because of less wax, place some wax to the end of the cord by diking it in to melted wax such as in burn candle, leave it cold and hard then burn it again.
Tips is you have to press the melt cord immediately after you blow the fire, before wax getting harder again, this process may hurt your finger a little bit, just do it slowly
It is really innovative and unique tips.Now i am going to try it.Thank you for sharing this site.
