So a few days ago I got the idea to make candles for some gifts. I collect tea cups, so my idea was to put brown wax in tea cups like it was coffee or cocoa but make it into a candle.
If I could do it again, I think the easiest thing to do would be to find some old brown candles and melt them. I, on the other hand bought wax and scented oil, and melted it. My genius idea was to add brown liquid watercolor BUT that did not work!!
First I went to several thrift stores and picked up lots of old tea cups and saucers.
I melted the wax and scented oil in a pot inside an electric frier filled with water
I used a paperclip to hold the wicks
then poured the melted wax in the cups
I bought the wicks in a small package at a craft store
I also bought some apple cinnamon scented oil
When they dreid, they weren't brown so I added brown crayons to the wax
and poured the crayon wax mixture on the top
