- Find a teacup! Either raid your mom’s old china or look for loose teacups at a thrift store. Get a saucer too and make your candle real cute.
- Fill the cup to the brim with the wax pellets.
- Stick the wick upright in the pellets.
- Sometimes two pieces of cardboard stapled together makes a good brace for the wick, otherwise it may flop down.
- Stick in the oven at 200˚ Fahrenheit.
- Once the wax is melted turn the oven off. Leave the teacups in the oven as it cools down. If the wax cools too quickly it’ll crack and not make the best candle. It may be best to leave the candles in the oven overnight.
- Trim the wick and enjoy the cozy-warm!
