Wax Dipped Toilet Paper!!

I saw these on the internet and just had to try them! They are toilet paper rolls dipped in scented wax. They are bathroom air fresheners! The one on the right is just dipped and the one on the left is dipped and then I poured wax on top of it to make it look grungy. These two are not full rolls. This makes it easier to dip them in a smaller can. The one at the very top is a full roll and needed a bigger pot of wax to dip in. Very easy to make and cheaper than a candle. I can't burn a candle in my toilet area so this is perfect! Jamie

Teardrop Luminaries

These teardrop luminaries were fun and easy to make. Water balloons dipped in paraffin wax. I added stearin to the wax and found that the wax did not harden as much as I would have liked it to. The edges started to melt a bit, as well as underneath the soy wax tea lights I put inside them to light them up. I will try adding F-T to the wax and see if that makes a difference in the hardness. I just have to find it first. Even though they melted a bit (the snowball hardly at all) they are beautiful when they are lit up! Jamie

Pumpkin Candles

I made these for Thanksgiving. I used a pour-n-pour-out technique and they turned out great! I used paraffin wax because it is a harder wax and better for molded candles. These make great hostess gifts!!! Jamie

Candle Tip!!!

Are you having a hard time lighting a candle where the wick is too deep? Try lighting a piece of spaghetti and using the lit part to light the wick.
