Ice Candles


 Yesterday we made Ice Candles.

My favourite part was opening the ice candle because I had know idea that a lot of water was going to pour out of the sides .

All you need to make this is

Old candle wax

An empty milk carton ( washed out )

Oil

ice

Long candle

Here are the steps to make an Ice candle.

1. Cut open a milk carton

2. Rub oil all over the inside of the carton

3. Put the long candle in the middle 

4. Fill it with ice

5. Melt the candle wax

6. Pour the candle wax into the carton

7. Wait 24 hours for it to harden

8. When its dry rip the carton off

9. Make sure all the water is out

10. Enjoy!

I found it really hard to rip the carton of because we didn't rub the oil all over the sides properly.

Here are some Photos.
