DIY candles

Its a while since I started this thread but since then I've acquired a box of wicks and, today, the final piece of the kit (all Free, of course) - a wax melter. Its sold as a chocolate melter but I'm sure it'll do the job. It came with a Scentsy consultant's insulated bag and several flexible moulds for making butterflies, Christmas trees and Santas.  Scentsy seems to be like Tupperware - host a party and get a discount on your order. Can't have been much of a success since the donor gave away her consultant's bag! Maybe I should start my own business - call it "Pongsy" or summat.

Finally, I've made some candles! I heated the wax on the woodstove and poured it into some pots and glasses that came with all the leftover wax I've been acquiring.
I gave away the flexible moulds as I didn't want to make wax melts only candles with  (free) wicks. 
I used an assortment of leftover coloured wax, red, green, blue, white and all the new candles are mauve.
