DIY Candle Upcycle Flowers

I think they were probably saying if you heat the wax then you can pour all the parts to make one new candles. Lol

Annie’s art studio: Annie, if you poured these just a little bit less tall, leaving more space at the top, you could sell them is “water candles”, with a little planchette to hold a packet of wax – impregnated wicks. They’re very pretty, and you wouldn’t have to leave a whole lot of space for your customers to be able to put a layer of water on top of your acrylic, and then a layer of oil in which to float the wick holder.

You would pretty much be the only person selling that product, and the fact that you have mostly filled the column with acrylic and inclusions would mean that they’d be a whole lot easier to clean because they’d be much more shallow containers to have to reach into for cleaning.❤️

Edited to correct the auto correction. Sigh; sometimes I wonder if there’s not a little imp running the autocorrector.

I up cycled my old candle glass jars with lids- saved them for one year. Filled them with cookies I made homemade for a Christmas gift each cookies fit the jar wrapped in cupcake holders. Perfect 👍🏼 🎉

After looking through the comments, the resin she's using is called Mas Epoxies Deep Pour X.

[tashmaxwell]

In case anyone else is thinking of doing this: Always remember to use lots of ventilation and wear masks when working with materials like epoxies!

oh damn my midnight super sleepy brain thought you were making a cocktail and started to file away them ingredients for this weekend

[denisetarabori]

Fabulous!!! I save all my dried bouquets and put them in vases. Adding resin/epoxy is genius and beautiful!

They would be cute to use for floating candles or sand art too.

My mom uses them to put fake flowers in like a vase for them. She uses them and puts rocks or glass pebbles from the store in them so the fake flower stem can sit in them. To add a bit extra you can use a ribbon to make a bow around the middle. Make sure to heat seal the ends of the ribbon to prevent fraying. My mom reuses different sized ones for different types of plants.


You can also use the ones with lids to store things like crystals, rings you wear, and other things you might use or collect.

I just use candle holders to make new candles or hold small things.

Makeup supplies, art supplies, sewing supplies, scissors, seeds for my birds, plant seeds, ect.
