▶ HOW TO DO ◀
What You Need
Taper Candles: You can find them at dollar stores, party stores, or grocery stores.
Container: for getting water
Tealight Candles: Any colored one as you like
Lighter: or matches to light candles
Box Cutter: for cutting candles
1. Soak the candles in warm water.
Fill a heat-proof container with warm water, and leave your candles in it for about 20 minutes.
The time varies depending on the types of candles and the temperature of the water. So, check them often to see how soft they are.
▶ The water should be as hot as you can handle.
2. Manipulate the candles.
Once the candles are soft enough to manipulate, start to bend each candle into your desired shape.
▶ It is easier to manipulate them while in the water since the warm water keeps them soft.
3. Flatten the bottom.
To ensure the candles can stand on their own, slice the bottom of the candles to flatten them.
▶If you have a potato peeler, consider using it. It makes it a lot easier.
4. Try various shapes.
Manipulate candles into shapes as your desired, such as bent, twisted, or any other forms.
👍 Our Pick!
If you cannot decide what shape, we recommend a twisted shape that suits many occasions and spaces.!
▶How to Twist the Candles◀
You can use a rolling pin (or jam jar) to flatten a candle while soft.
Once you’ve flattened it, slowly twist the candle.
5. Decorate your candles
Light the tealight candles while your candles get harden.
Once candle wax melts and becomes liquid, sprinkle the wax from the tea light over the candles.
▶ You can save time if you light the tealight candle while shaping your candles.
6. Enjoy!
Give a little time for the candle wax to harden completely, then it's done!
Try it in as many styles as you desired and decorate your space with them.
