It was just a boring day and I needed something to do. I had this project on my mind for few months but never the time for it.
Now, my kid went to grandmas, hubby was at work, dog is well being a dog...
So I decided that today is the day...now or never.
It is fun thing to do, it is not hard at all, and if you add some scent into it it will even smell nice. But it's such a nice decore that you will be sorry to light it up. At least I am.
So it became a decore in my vintage home.
For this you will need 11 white candels, 2 brown crayons and 1 black,coca-cola 0,5l plastic bottle, scalper or sharp knife, a pot and i think that is it...
Star by takeing candels and choping them along the middle to take the cord out. You need 2 of them. So the hard part is the prep time. You need to dived all the candels.
When you do that put 8 of them in a pot with crayons. On small heat and wait for it until is melted. In the meantime put some cold water in a bowl and the plastic bottle in the middle.
Put 2 cords together, tie the top to the toothpick and put some waight to the other side (the bottom of the cord) so it will stay uprigh in the bottle.
When it's melted you need to carefully poure melted wax in bottle but not to the top, about 5-6cm under.
That you splash the bottel from the outside with cold water a few times and than let it cool down. You can put it in the fridge too.
That can take for about an hour or two.
Than you melt only 3 white canedls and poure them on to the top. Splash with cold water and let it cool down.
With knife punch a small hole in coca cola cap.
When the wax hardens you need to cut out the bottle so you have only wax candle. The best way is to squeeze the bottle a few times to relese the sides. Then make a,cut along the middle where the label goes. And than just take it out. Put the label, and a cap...and there you go... Nice wax coca cola candel...
Everyone just thinks that it is real frozen cola put when you light it...wow...
P.S. if you want scent. When the wax has melted,before you pour it in the bottle, put some essentcial oil or citrus scent in it...
And that's it...
Easy, practical and nice to look at.
