DIY Gilded Seashell Candles

A great DIY candle project idea is using clam shells as the holder. Not only are these relatively easy to make but they look like something you would only find in an upscale candle store. It’s convenient to have a wax pitcher for melting your wax but there are ways to double boil the wax with an aluminum can. A mason jar can also work. You’ll want to make sure you trim your wicks to between a half inch to an inch higher than the high side of the sea shell. These DIY candles easily help you feel like you’re in a calm beach environment.

Key Takeaways:

• For these candles you will need seashells, wax, wicks, scissors, a hot plate, a vessel and a disposable paint brush.
• When creating these candles, you can use any essential oil that you want in order to make them give off a pleasant scent.
• When you finish molding up the candles, you need to let them rest for about half an hour so that they can dry up.
