To recycle your candles, melt down all the left over stubs in a heat proof bowl in a warm oven.
Take a yoghurt pot (or similar) and make a small hole in the bottom.
Thread some string through and tie to a pencil balanced horizontally on the rim of the pot.
Pour in the melted wax and leave to set.
Remove the pot for a perfect candle.

I set up Crafted By B Studio after retiring from writing a blog for over 10 years on chronic pain. As a chronic pain sufferer myself I had always used art as a way to relax and take me away from my pain and stumbled upon paint by numbers by fluke. I was hooked from day one and went into custom paint by numbers as I progressed with my others. Over the past 3 years I have completed over 20 pieces and also made some of my own unique pieces. I am happy to help anyone who might like a custom picture made into a piece of beautiful art using this type of technology. I am also interested in lots of different types of crafts which I enjoy with my 4 grandchildren so my site will have lots of links and posts on mixed crafts and arts.

I didn’t realise that ordinary string would do for a wick, I don’t know why. Thanks for the idea I will have a go at this.
