What you will need:
Materials:
1) Soy Candle Wax Shaving (about 1 lb)
2)Gold oil based sharpie
3)Small rose bowl
4)Candle wicks
5)Black crayon
6)Paper cup
7)Not pictured – pencil, small knife, scissors, microwave, microwavable bowl
Step 1: Shave a black crayon and microwave it together with soy wax until they melt
Begin by gathering your soy wax shaving, and using a knife to shave down your black crayon (I used the entire crayon). Transfer the shavings into a microwavable bowl and microwave until the wax is completely melted. Depending on your microwave power this could take up to 3 minutes.
Step 2: Prepare your candle bowl by setting the candle wick in the center
Tip: use a pencil to keep the candle wick centered.
Step 3: Put the hot liquid into your glass bowl
Tip: I tried microwaving the wax in the paper cup but the hot wax started burning the cup! I heard a crackle, opened the microwave, smoke spilled out, and my smoke alarm went off. After a minute of flailing my pan holders in the air the alarm finally turned off. Phew. So take it from me, a microwavable bowl is the way to go! But transferring to the paper cup makes it easier to pour and helps prevent spills.
Step 4: Let the candle wax dry, then snip off the excess candle wick
Step 5: Use a gold sharpie marker to write your own Halloween saying
I used “black magic” since once the candle is lit the wax turns black.
