It's cold outside!


Nothing like a candle to change the atmosphere in a room. After hunting down some charity shop cups and saucers and any other suitable receptacles, we made them all into container candles!


First you have to stick the wick in the center of the cup. then you pour in the hot wax.


We were using soya wax which is nicer to the environment and it's not as messy. It also throws the scent very well. We were adding seasonal spiced apple and cedar to our melted wax. 


Making sure the wick is centered after the wax is poured is important too, so the candle burns properly. That's where chopsticks come in handy.
