Step 1:

Instructional Video :)

Step 2:

Draw the base circle of the candle and its height. Cut these pieces out of the sheet of paper.

Step 3:

Stick with masking tape the pieces cut in the previous step (as shown in the images)

Step 4:

Cover the candle with plastic wrap

Step 5:

Cut the polymer clay into small parts and create groups as shown in the images. Then mix each group created.

Step 6:

What I did in this step was to cut a small portion of each ball of polymer clay and combine it with another small portion of the one next to it, in order to create more shades of color.

Step 7:

Create cylinders of polymer clay with each color and flatten them with the roller

Step 8:

Join all the parts and flatten them with the roller

Step 9:

Combine some yellow with white, knead it into a cylinder shape, flatten it with the roller and join it to the bottom as shown in the images

Step 10:

Then cut it into two parts and add a bit of yellow to one of them.

Step 11:

Join both parts (leaving the yellow in the center) and flatten them with the roller

Step 12:

Now cover the top with red

Step 13:

Cut the piece into three equal parts and join them

Step 14:

Cover them with more red and again cut it into 3 equal parts

Step 15:

Join the parts and start kneading a little, giving a triangular shape

Step 16:

Cover with red polymer clay and cut pieces approx 3 or 4 mm wide

Step 17:

Those pieces that did not turn out very well when cut, I mixed them and with them I created the lower part of the candle holder.

Step 18:

Then what I did was flatten each petal a bit with the roller, stick it to the polymer clay base made in the previous step and finish shaping it with my fingers.
