DIY Watermelon Candle Instructions:
- At first, separate those grated candle wax into three different containers.
- Add 2-3 tiny red color pieces into a container and a bit of green color into another container. Leave the rest container as we need some portions of our candles in white shade.
- Now, melt those waxes y setting them in your microwave or you can put your container into the hot boiling water.
- Then, prepare your cup by placing the candle wicks appropriately and for that, you need to spread some glue on the bottom of your candle wicks and set them on the center bottom of your cup.
- After melting your candles wax along with the color, make sure that you add some essence oil into the green wax container to get the properly scented candles.
- Now, pour in some of this green melted wax in the measurement of the quarter of your cups and place them into your freezer to solidify completely. Put one Popsicle stick over the each paper cup to support your candle wick.
- Then, take out those cups after a while and spray some rubbing alcohol before adding the next layer of wax.
- Now, pour on the second layer of wax which must be a colorless melted candle wax.
- Let them set in your freezer again to solidify and after the white wax is set, it is now time for pour in the red wax.
- After your wax is completely set, cut your extra candle wick from each candle.
- Now, slip a little piece of the paper cup and then rip it off with your hand. Do the same with all cups and candles wicks.
- Finally, it’s time to decorate the candles to provide the final touch and for that take some craft paint and draw some black seeds over the red surface of your every single candle.
