By lighting a candle. But how can we make it extra special? With our autumn motif. We have collected autumn leaves and used the KREUL Candle Pen to print them onto candles. It’s wonderful how the filigree veins on the leaves show up on the candles. And we've kept everything in autumnal colour shades. Fancy a quick autumn craft project? Here, we show you how easy it is to print on candles. ![](https://farben-blog.c-kreul.de/fileadmin/_processed_/e/3/csm_KREUL-Candle-Pen_Kerze-bedrucken_2_79562e8458.jpg "KREUL Candle Pen Kerzen bemalen bedrucken mit Laub Tutorial") ### Step 1: Squeeze your colours onto a palette: yellow and red like autumn leaves First squeeze two colours of the KREUL Candle Pen onto a tile or plate. To go with the bright orange autumn leaves, we have chosen red and yellow. Just squeeze the liquid wax colour out of the pen. You can use this straight away, no need to warm it first. Just so practical! ![](https://farben-blog.c-kreul.de/fileadmin/_processed_/d/b/csm_KREUL-Candle-Pen_Kerze-bedrucken_3_579f0bcb8b.jpg "Blatt mit Kerzenfarbe und Farbroller anmalen KREUL Candle Pen") ### Step 2: Use a paint roller to apply the paint We don’t put the paint straight onto the candle, but first pick it up on a paint roller. That way we can get an even print – not too thick, and we can blend the colours. From red and yellow, you get spots of bright orange. Then roll the paint onto the back of the autumn leaf. It doesn’t matter if the leaf sticks to the paint roller. ![](https://farben-blog.c-kreul.de/fileadmin/_processed_/8/a/csm_KREUL-Candle-Pen_Kerze-bedrucken_4_8d1bbf43c0.jpg "Kerzenfarbe Wachs kalt Pen Blatt Laub Herbst Druck Motiv übertragen") ### Step 3: Print the leaf with a special trick Peel the leaf off the paint roller and place it onto the candle. Press it down gently. Now for a special trick: Roll the candle together with the leaf. The pressure from the tabletop helps transfer the motif onto the candle. Then carefully remove the leaf from the candle and admire the leafprint on the candle! We love the even paint application and the filigree details. Have fun printing on candles! ![](https://farben-blog.c-kreul.de/fileadmin/_processed_/d/f/csm_KREUL-Candle-Pen_Kerze-bedrucken_5_4c8e253b61.jpg "DIY Bastel Ideen Kerzen malen KREUL Candle Pen Farbe Blätter drucken ") ### Printing candles with autumn leaves – check out the video!
