how to make the shot glass candle

Date:
If you are at a loss for what to do with your growing shot glass collection, get creative and turn them into interesting candles. It's a great alternative to letting them gather dust in a cabinet, allows you to show off your collectionm, and helps create aotmosphere with a funky flare.


Steps:

1. Break up all your old, half burned candles into a measuring cup.  You can use discolored wax if you are planning on adding some wax dye.
2. Place the measuring cup into a pan of boiling water until the wax melts.
3. Watch to see when the wax has almost melted completely so you can add the wax dye.
4. Cut lengths of wick to fit the shot glasses.
5. Place the wicks inside the shot glasses.Make sure you only use glass shot glasses or any other thick glass. Put a small drop of glue on the tip, and press that into the bottom center of the glass to make sure the wick stays put
6. When the wax is melted down, pour the wax into each shot glass, but be careful not to submerge the entire wick.
7. When the wax is almost completely set, move the wick into the center of the glass and then leave it to fully set.  Wax contracts as it cools, so you may need to do another pour of wax after the candle has set.
8.  Finished
