Finished Project
Supplies:
Tea Cup or other glass container
Candle Wicks ( On Amazon for $3)
Glue
Crayons
I got this one from Value Village for only $3.99
Take one of the wicks and put a dab of glue, on the
bottom and stick it to the bottom of the teacup, and let it dry.
Pick the Crayon colours you want the candle wax to be,
I decided to pick colours that would blend together easily.
Take the wrappers off the crayons and put them into a microwave safe bowl.
Heat the crayons 1 minute at a time, stirring in-between, it took
me about 4 minutes for the crayons to fully melt.
Remember to use a oven mitt when taking out the
bowl, and while pouring the wax into the container.
The bowl and wax are extremely hot.
Have someone hold the wick while you carefully pour
in the wax around it. If you don't have anyone to hold
it just move it quickly after the wax is poured in so it
won't set in the wrong place.
Hold the wick while the wax dries, until the wick is able to stay in place
without you holding it. Let it sit for a few hours until the wax is completely
cooled, Cut the wick so it is only about half an inch tall.
Light your new candle and place it beside a cute owl, or anywhere
in your home & enjoy. It lets off a slight crayon smell,
which i actually really enjoyed.
