aleshakendrick,
I taped the corners of a piece of tissue paper (a piece smaller than 8 1/2 x 11) to a piece of computer paper then carefully fed it through our laser jet printer. Sometimes the ink runs on the tissue paper, sometimes it does not.
Thanks for looking,
Anne

Hi,
This candle is beautiful! I am curious as to how you printed their photo onto tissue paper. Does it not get hung in your printer because it is so thin? I would appreciate any tips or info on this technique. Thank you!

The best tip I can offer is for you to take out all the other paper out of the printer first. Then guide the one sheet of paper in, carefully watching it print. On that sheet, you want to tape the the four corners of the tissue paper to the computer paper and center the photo such that it gets printed where the tissue is located on your sheet. Then, carefully detach the tissue paper from the computer paper. Does that help?
