Beeswax candles
I've done the dip kind before as a kid, but those are made of paraffin and aren't clean-burning, and require an intense set-up and clean-up!
My future mother-in-law recently gave me some pretty colors of beeswax sheets and wick string and I rolled and cut up these candles! I made mostly tapers but I also made some short ones and combined three to make a squat one--it's the melted one in the uppermost right corner.
You can buy sheets of beeswax online, although I didn't buy these so I don't know where they came from... anyone have any other stores of beeswax candle-rolling? I feel so crafty! They smell nice, burn clean, and are cute colors!
