To create the candle you will need:
bleached beeswax (≈60-80 g)
soft micro-wax or stearin (not necessary).
Europe: Open
wax melter or water bath containers
silicone mat
spoon
knife
box cutter (scalpel)
stack with balls on the ends (bulka)
maracas or other ball-shaped object with a diameter of 5-6 cm
wax dyes (any company will do)
wick braid in a spool

silicone sheet liner
Europe: Open Open
silicone petal viner (there are a huge variety of petal viners on the market, the links are mainly for example, you can choose any, the main thing is that they should not be plastic, but soft silicone)
Европа: Open
Open
piece of wire
paint (acrylic, gouache or tempera)
two small brushes
dry cloth
container of water
construction hair dryer or flame source (not necessary)
Preparation:
The room should be warm, without a draft, work on a warm surface, so the wax will cool more slowly. If the countertop is cold, you can put a towel, wooden board or heated mat under it.
Pour the wax into a wax melter or water bath container and melt it to a liquid state
Spread the mat, clean it from dust, if necessary, lubricate it with vegetable oil (optional).
Prepare all the tools in front of you
Preparation of wax:
To the melted wax, add colorant. The amount depends on the desired color. If you want to achieve a bright shade, use a well-pigmented dye, as adding an excessive amount may make the wax more brittle.
Stir the wax well to melt the dye.
Making process:
(a) Stem:
spread the green dyed wax on the mat and let it cool slightly; the wax should not be too hot and break down
cut out a rectangle of 18x9 cm from the slightly cooled wax.
Cut the wick and twist it into the wax, pressing the layers of wax tightly together so that there is no space between them.
smooth the seam
b) core:
Melt the new wax and color it with the color of the future petals
spread some wax on the mat and let it cool slightly, at this stage the wax should be the same temperature as when you created the stem.
form a core of wax about 2-3 cm in size; if the wax does not stick well, add up to 10-15% micro-wax or stearin to it
c) petals:
Spoon the wax onto the mat, forming rounded “pancakes” of 6-7 pieces and with a diameter of 4-4.5 cm
when the wax has cooled a little, carefully remove the petals from the mat and
use a viner to give them the texture of veins; if necessary, heat the petals with a hair dryer or over a candle flame.
Wrap the petals around the core, gluing from the bottom and sides, leaving a free edge at the top; each next petal should be glued overlapping the previous one.
Spoon the wax onto the mat, forming rounded “pancakes” of 7-8 pieces with a diameter of 4.5-5 cm.
when the wax has cooled slightly, carefully remove the petals from the mat and
use a viner to give them the texture of veins; if necessary, heat the petals with a hair dryer or over a candle flame.
glue all the petals in a circle, folding the free top edge slightly outwards; each petal should be glued overlapping the previous one.
Spoon the wax onto the mat, forming rounded “pancakes” of 20-25 pieces with a diameter of 5-6 cm.
when the wax has cooled slightly, carefully remove the petals from the mat and
use a viner to give them a veined texture; if necessary, heat the petals with a hair dryer or over a candle flame.
Using a maracas, shape each petal into a rounded shape.
Use your fingers to shape the curve of the edge of each petal
glue the petals in a circle in 3-4 rows similar to the previous row; starting with the 2nd row of the largest petals, the rows should be glued lower and lower.
allow the candle to cool slightly if necessary
d) sepals:
melt the green colored wax from which you made the stem
Pour some wax onto the mat and spread it out not too thinly.
cut out 5-6 sepals with a scalpel.
shape them into a rounded shape using a stack, fold the edges of the sepal backwards.
glue the sepals onto the stem under the bud, smoothing the borders between the stem and sepals with your fingers.
e) leaf:
Pour a little wax onto the mat so that there is enough for a leaf and spread it out not very thinly
When the wax has cooled to working temperature, cut out the leaf with a scalpel or knife.
Use a viner to give the leaf a veined texture.
Wrap the twig of the leaf around the wire, leaving up to 1 cm from the bottom.
glue the twig and leaf to the stem, smoothing the edges so that they blend in with the stem.
(e) Spikes:
Pour some wax onto the mat and spread it out not very thinly
When the wax has cooled to working temperature, tear off a small piece of wax to form a rose thorn.
glue it onto the stem, spreading the edges until the border is no longer visible.
glue as many thorns as you see fit, I usually do about 4 pieces
g) tinting:
with a brush, apply some paint to the edge of the petal
soak a second brush in water, squeeze it on a tissue and spread the paint.
You can also tint the leaf, thorns and sepals.
