    Such a brilliant idea! When you talked about taping the wick/mechanics area, all I could think of was silly putty. It comes in handy around the house for the weirdest things, & I think this might be another one. As long as the wax isn't too hot (like before you can ditch the pot holders), a blob of silly putty around the wick might be enough of a barrier. I can't wait to try this 🙂

    Thanks really neat, just thinking you could also use wax tarts in a warmer and when it’s melted just spoon out the wax

    Will painters tape work to seal off open areas of the candle?

    You can make a knobby candle by putting mod podge on a candle and rolling it in instant coffee and cinnamon or spices. Very cool looking.

    Could you not use a tool like a pipett to drip the wax on?

    • @GraceInMySpace
      @GraceInMySpace  2 роки тому

      You could try! But I think once you’ve sucked the hot wax up, it would dry inside and eventually it would clog.

      Oh yeah! Didn’t think of that haha duh maybe not then

    Just wondering with the wax melted on the stove: would a turkey baster used just for this work easier than pouring???

    • @GraceInMySpace
      @GraceInMySpace  3 роки тому

      It would work, but only as long as it took for the wax to build up inside, dry and then clog the opening. 😊 I think you’d have to constantly be cleaning it out.

      The plastic might melt. I would suggest a spoon. Would provide more control

    If you don’t have a old jar candle you could break up a tapper candy and melt it in a clean can (ie veggie can) love your ideas! Looks amazing!

    This is so beautiful! Did you use anything to keep the sticks in your brass holders?!

      Nope! They stuck just fine. 😁

    Wouldn't it work if you had the wax in a bowl and you dribbled it on with a spoon? That way you'd be less likely to pour it on yourself and you'd be able to control the wax more.

    • @GraceInMySpace
      @GraceInMySpace  3 роки тому

      I did try it that way as well but it took a very long time to get a good build up. Definitely doable but requires patience.

    Easier to control, you can do it on any color candle and then paint it said candles color, not messy what so ever.
