DIY Colored Gel Candles
"Do you love burning beautiful and colorful candles?....Nothing sets a warm glow in a room better than a candle....and what if I say they are wonderfully easy and fun to make them yourself ? It is pretty much exciting craft and not at all difficult. The transparent nature of the Gel candle makes it even more exciting to work with.It is also fun to work with the colors for these candles. You can play around with the colors and create your own candles for specific holidays. It is just that you have to take care to use colors that are wax soluble. Materials Used:- Mini Glass Jars Gel Wax Candle Wick Tooth Pick Candle Dye Color Artificial Pearls and Sequins Colored Sand or Aquarium sand"

I was first 'introduced' to gel candles in the early 1970's. I really like the clear appearance of them. Even though I have used wax I never thought about making gel candles. I love the idea of adding in embellishments for extra dcor. There are so many possibilities and themes I can think of for this type of project. What a great way to use mementos picked up at the beach or vacation spot. What would you use?
