some candles and a lantern

Hey people! I've made some candles last week out of old candle pieces used last Christmas.First I proceeded by melting down the pieces after having removed the wick. ideaI used a portable camping stove for that. If you haven't got one, use the one found in your kitchen, but be prepared to make some mess. Then I added some colour to the molten candle wax and I poured it in different types of utensils to get different shapes Here a picture of my first four candle pieces. I made the heart-shaped one for my sister. Then I made a lantern out of bristol paper, glue and vellum. At night it gives a nice effect when a candle is lit inside.

Right now I'm making some paper christmas decorations. I'll be right back! Hehe!
