Introduction: Candle Made of Scraps

About: Safety first! Or maybe second....?

I made a candle. It's made of scrap wax that dripped from other candles and the unusable bottoms.

Supplies

  • Wick (I had real store boughten ones)
  • Jar
  • Old broken parts of candles
  • sticky note

Step 1: Cut the Wick

Cut the wick to the right length for your jar. It should stick out about 1/2". Then stick it to the bottom of the jar.

Step 2: Melt the Wax

Put the wax into your melting device. The stove should be turned on low or medium.

Step 3: Pour the Wax!

Pour the wax into your jar using a sticky note with a hole to stabilize it.

Step 4: Let It Cool

Let the wax cool off.

Step 5: Burn It
