Make Your Own Sandy Candles

Who doesn’t love a sparkly flame dancing around through candle light? And these candles are particularly great after a trip at the beach. You can burn them immediately or set them in a beach display.

What You Will Need:

Shoe Box Candle Wick Candle Wax, Melted (You can recycle old candles with this craft) Sand Pencil

You start by filling the shoebox with damp sand and using your fist, make a hole in the center of the sand but make sure you do not reach the bottom of the box.

Now you take the pencil and make four tunnels in each side of the hole about an inch deeper than the hole, these tunnels will be the candle’s feet.

Now you can wrap the wick around the pencil and position the pencil so the end of the wick goes down into the middle of the hole to the bottom. Now you melt the candle wax and slowly pour the wax into the hole

And when the wax finally hardens, take out the candle and clean off the excess sand. Finally, you can set the candle where ever you like.
