During an early high school project focused on theming marketable items on literature, one student ventured into the realm of candle making with a twist. Fascinated by the idea of combining traditional craftsmanship with modern technology, he embarked on a project to create candles in the shape of a dragon’s head, inspired by Smaug from The Hobbit. His first step was to learn how to create a silicone mold, a process that involved 3D printing a dragon’s head model. Once the model was printed, he used it to craft a precise silicone mold, perfect for candle making.
The result was a series of unique candles that captured the imagination of all who saw them. He leveraged the skills he acquired in social media marketing to promote and sell his dragon’s head candles. This not only showcased his innovative approach to art and technology but also demonstrated his entrepreneurial spirit, as he successfully introduced his creations to a wider audience, blending artistry with the allure of mythology.
