Teacup candles.

During my days off work this week I decided to try out teacup candle making. I've dabbled in candle making before, but have just used moulds. I've bought a couple of teacup candles in the past, and always thought they were really sweet, so I thought I could make some as gifts for people for Christmas! I was inspired by Fiona who makes lovely candles :)

I decided to test it out using a teacup left over from a candle I bought from the lime garden. Here is the finished product, lit up!


I then picked up a few teacups from some local charity shops and set to work with making some coloured scented candles! Both red candles are rose scented - they smell so lovely.



My favourite teacup I've bought so far has to be this one - just look at those cute kittens! My inner crazy cat lady came out when I saw this in the charity shop. I'm going to make a green spiced apple scented one in this, I think.



Have had quite a crafty few days actually - keep your eyes peeled for another baking post [see the double chocolate fudge cake recipe here] coming up in a day or so, it's a good'n [well, I think so!].
