Creating Seashell Candles *DIY*

Easy
Everything looks better by candlelight as it casts such a warm and inviting glow. Instead of just sprinkling shells on the table I grabbed some shells from my beach hunting and decided to make some candles. It's so simple and if you've never made candles before, a great way to start!
A mix of shells have been used. Try and use shells that have a relatively flat bottom...
Use a glue gun and affix your wick to the center of each shell...
Heat up your wax in a double boiler. I prefer using soy wax...
Allow about 1/2 hr for the wax to dry and trim your wick. For more photos and instruction visit my blog at shabbyfufublog.com
