  • Welcome to the first of many tutorials, getting you into the creative spirit this Christmas!
    These DIY Tealight Houses are a great activity to do with friends or children - the possibilities are endless.
    Here is the dough recipe used in the video.
    You will need:
    - 120g (1 cup) bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)
    - 60g (1/2 cup) cornflour (corn starch)
    - 170ml (3/4 cup) warm water
    Mix the bicarbonate of soda and cornflour together in a saucepan.
    Then add the warm water and stir until it’s well mixed and there are no lumps.
    Put the pan over a medium heat, and keep stirring until it starts to bubble. It will gradually dry and turn to a dough consistency. When it looks a bit like play dough, take it off the heat and allow it to cool.
    Once the dough has cooled, knead it on a board for a couple of minutes so that it becomes soft and easy to use. Make sure to sprinkle a little cornflour on the board first, like I did in the video, to stop it sticking.
    Once you've made all of your pieces, pop your shapes onto a lined baking tray and bake at 100℃ for 1 hour.
    Make sure the top doesn't brown to keep your lovely white decorations!

    Battery operated tea light candles are best for this.

    Can you please tell us what tools you're using for the small square and circle cutouts?

    I have two questions: With a real candle inside will hot glue melt? And will dougt burn / becomes brown?

      Yes, of course! Think of the heat a candle flame generates.Try putting your hand over one for a few hours and see how it feels - that's exactly what you'd be doing to your little clay house... It would most likely crack. 🙃

    Non penso che usare la colla a caldo sia una scelta intelligente… visto che accendendo una candela il calore ne scioglierebbe ancora i lati…
