There are a few days left until New Year’s Eve. If you’re planning to spend the New Years Eve at home, with family or friends, then you need to prepare in advance the perfect decorations for this Holiday. Learn how to make your own candles, from Martha Stewart.
You need:
– white beeswax
– white wax pencil
– brush with sponge
– holly leaves
– tall candles, red and / or white
– knife for carving (or catheter)
Melt white wax along with half of the wax pencil. In this way you will get a bright white wax.
With the sponge add fine layers over the holly leaves, cleaned and dried in advance. Add more layers until you get the desired thickness. Apply the leaf, as the wax is still warm, on the candles, so that you get the desired pattern. Press gently with your finger, then remove the leaf carefully.
Form fruits by dripping wax on a hard surface until you form a ball. With the help of the knife, level the wax until you get a perfect ball. Paste it over the leaves.
All you have to do now, is to decorate the table with the candles created by you.
