You'll need: Birthday candles, lemons/oranges/mandarines, beeswax (1).
'Peel' the colour from the birthday candles (2). You can use scisors or any type of knife. Slice your fruit in half. Remove the flesh (3) very carefully. Put the beeswax ito a pan and turn the stove on the low temperature. Don't leave it unattended. Place the candle in the centre of lemon/orange/mandarine half and pour a small amount of beeswax (4). Leave it until it's hard and stable. Then pour the left beeswax until the half is full.If the b-day candle inside is too long, you can cut it 1cm above the wax surfacee.
These candles look beautiful on this wooden board! I just adore the colours.
Wish you a lovely day,
Julia
