Good evening, lovely people! How´s your day so faar? :-)
While my brother is talking and talking and talking on my left, I try to keep my focus and write a sensible blog post. He must be the most talkative boy I know of, he has always something on his heart he´d very much like to share ;-) *hehe* Gotta loove that! Well, even though I´ve had a busy day, I´ve managed to squeeze in this little project of mine in my day schedule. Since we´ve used lots of candles in December, I´ve managed to collect a whole plastic bag. It was more than enough, I ended up with 3 cups, and still I have leftovers enough for at least two more cups. So I plan to buy some extra nice cups tomorrow and make presents out of them. But here was the result of today, hope you like the pictures, but better if I can inspire others so try as well :D!
(The candlewicks are bought from Panduro Hobby, 10 pieces for 46kr.)
I put the cup in a large pot and filled it with water to boil (on low heat). The colours of my used candles were of white, pink and red.
I didn´t have the time or energy to hold the candlewick and wait until the candle tallow had stiffen, so I used two knives to hold it up.
As you can see, the colour result is pink/red-ish, I´m very satisfied. :-)
And especially the hubby, since I picked one of his I-love-sport-and-am-so-manly-cups ;-)
What do you think of the project? :-)
