Making Candles

Do you want to have a candlelit house like someone in the Middle Ages?

Well, you’re in luck!!! Making candles is easy!

Materials required:

• Crayons

• Some kind of burner 

• A pot you don’t care about

• A mold of some kind 

• Natural fiber string

The first step to making candles is to accumulate a large plethora of crayons. After accumulating these crayons, separate them into general color grouping so that they don't become a muddy color. After separating by hue, prepare a pot that you’re ok with never seeing again on the burner,(May require adult supervision.)

Then add your crayons into the pot. Make sure you're watching the crayons so that they don't burn, and prepare your mold. If you don't have a pre-prepared mold then I recommend making one out of a shot glass and some tinfoil. Coat the shot glass in the tinfoil and make sure there are no holes for the candle to seep out of.

By the time your mold is done, hopefully your crayons are completely melted. Hold a string over the mold and pour the hot wax in (May require adult supervision). Now you wait! By the time it's done cooling, you can remove your candle from the mold. Make sure that before lighting the string is 1/4 an inch for optimal lighting experience. Now you're done!!!

These candles are perfect for any dangerously loose and unstable chandelier! They’re also perfect to make one day when you are bored and locked up, never to see the light of day again! In this scenario, half of your family would have forgotten about you, and the other half would want you to rot in the deepest depths of the mansion's dungeon, which you had bought after working as a personal butler for the king for 17 long, grueling years!

You, being the strange person you are, enjoy this loneliness, which after the months and months of candle making, has slowly morphed into solitude! Now, that you have reached the pinnacle of being, detached from all worldly desires, you become Buddha!
