Candles!
March 05, 2006

I made teensy little candles this weekend, using various sauce dishes as containers. They look so perfect on my coffee table I can hardly bear to light them!
Sauce dishes

I keep my candle supplies in a plastic bin in a closet, and until Saturday this box had remained unopened for several years. When I lugged it down to my kitchen and opened it, it REEKED of this terrible mixture of Peach and Watermelon candle scent that came free with a starter candle kit I got early on. If I worked around that smell all day I'd give it away for free, too.

I also spent a bit of time working on a project thats been bouncing around in my head for a while. It involves spray gloss enamel and recycled metal containers, but its not quite ready for its closeup quite yet. Soon!

I LOVE the idea of using these bowls to make candles. I am absolutely going to have find some of my little bowls and try it. Although my personal weakness is for little ceramic plates and trays. Any ideas?
