Today I was suppose to talk about my Favor Bags items, but I was swept off my feet by this fabulous project that I came across at Martha's Web Site and since it fits my theme so perfect I couldn't wait:) and..... I had all the ingredients! Note: Double Boiler - is large pot half full with boiling water and a smaller pot inside where you are doing the melting.

Today I was suppose to talk about my Favor Bags items, but I was swept off my feet by this fabulous project that I came across at Martha's Web Site and since it fits my theme so perfect I couldn't wait:) and..... I had all the ingredients! Note: Double Boiler - is large pot half full with boiling water and a smaller pot inside where you are doing the melting.

Instructions

  1. Small dsc 0054

    Let's begin! Wash seashells carefully with water and a small amount of bleach. Let them dry. Melt old candle in a double boiler. Place waxed wicks in each seashell
