Candle making

Jenni got me a candle making kit for Christmas so I thought I'd better make use of it!

Issue number 1 was making an bain marie (For anyone who didn't take Chemistry with Kirstie and I, Wax has a flash point. you shouldn't heat it directly).
In the end I used an empty biscuit tin floating in a saucepan of water and the worked pretty well.

I made some blue candles and some stripey red, yellow and orange ones. I think they look pretty cool.
:)

Although, I did make an awful lot of mess.
