Craft instructions for the window picture candle
- First you help your child to transfer the templates to the photo cardboard. You transfer the candle to the red photo cardboard, you transfer the base of the candle to the green photo cardboard and the flame to the yellow photo cardboard. You transfer the stars 6 times onto the yellow photo cardboard.
- Now your child can cut out the shapes.
- When everything is cut out, your child can start gluing. Your child sticks the red candle in the middle of the green base of the candle. Then your child can stick on the yellow stars. Three go on the front and three on the back. Finally, your child sticks the flame on top of the candle.
- When everything is dry, use a pointed object to poke a hole in the candle flame and pull the thread through it. You can now hang your candle window picture on it.
