How do you make a lantern that uses a large candle?
Some time ago I saw on your site instructions on how to make your own beautiful lantern . I’ve seen where you can buy them but they’re quite expensive. The one I would love to have is about 24” to 30” tall and you put a large candle in them. Can anyone help? Was also hoping to make the candle into a repellent for mosquitoes, so I would love advice on how to make citronella candles?
