Press the graphic onto the side of the mold using a chopstick or small spoon, and press a cool wet wash cloth onto the other side of the mold.

You'll see the wax start to solidify and sort of "glue" the graphic to the side of the mold.

Lower the mold into the water bath and let it cool. Remove the candle and finish it off as you would a basic hurricane shell.
