Main star - Up cycling

Main star - Up cycling
For this main star I am making Candles out of old preserving jars and the money I putting forward to another main star which is the charity I have chosen. I have sold 4 so there is only one left. I am selling these for $10.

these are pictures of me making the candles

This is me standing the wicks up 

This me melting the wax

This is the wax when it has melted

I put the wax in with the jar and some vanilla oil

Here is my candles made and they smell like vanilla

  1. I love my candle Angus. It has made the house smell great!! You also took the lids from the jars to school for a PrEP project so that is two recycling projects from each jar. I am sure St John will be so happy to receive your donation. What do you thjnk they might use the money for?
