DIY GOTHIC WATER CANDLE - How To | SoCraftastic

[@SoCraftastic]

Hi everyone! I hope you're all having a great week. Sorry I'm off schedule again - after it happens once it's so difficult to catch up, but I'm trying! Enjoy the new DIY & let me know which candle from this video is your favorite. I'll be working as hard as I can to get back on track with the Friday / Sunday upload schedule. A new Wreck This Journal will be coming soon along with tons of fun DIYs & more! Thank you all for your support. ♥︎ Sarah

[@aishayusaf3876]

SoCraftastic I love your videos you are so artistic

[@josiehart4952]

SoCraftastic the one looks like the upside down!

[@SoCraftastic]

Aisha Yusaf I'm happy you do! Thank you. :)

[@SoCraftastic]

Josie Hart Love Stranger Things! Thank you for watching. :)

[@josiehart4952]

SoCraftastic yep!❤️You are definitely one of my favorite youtubers!!!

[@alexisbenrud]

These look a lot like coral! It'd be super cool if you made a whole "under the sea" candle thing!

[@larissaleigh4488]

ikr

[@baclamom]

I want to see Rob from Man vs Pin do this. Better yet, Corrine.

[@SoCraftastic]

Yes! That would be such an entertaining video. Man vs Corrine vs Pin. ;)

[@memequeenhana8026]

rob already did this though

[@TemperedStorm]

Sarah, I understand that your demographic is probably overwhelmingly younger than older viewers like me who have been in the work force for 10 -- even 20 -- years. However, I have to say I really like the more grown-up type of DIYs you do such as these gothic candles and wish you'd do more of them. Don't get me wrong; I love your creativity and get inspired by all the different ways to use duct tape (the duct tape pencil bags and using decorative snake skin duct tape to decorate plain, boring binders are a couple of my favorites), mixing melt-and-pour soap to create beautiful works of art, the various ways of creating beautiful candles, etc. However, not all of us attend school or are into creating our own school supplies (although those same supplies could be used for the office if the theme wasn't geared toward youngsters). i love being able to put a personal spin on office supplies that i bring from home as a way to make my job a little more interesting. Just something for you to think about, please. Whatever you decide, I wish you and your channel continued success and look forward to more videos.

[@SoCraftastic]

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the video. I enjoy more grown-up DIYs such as this one too, especially since they are more practical. The plan is to buy my first house around the spring of 2018, hopefully, so I will be dabbling in more room decor & possibly bigger projects (since I will finally have a garage). I'll still have a mix of younger stuff but the thought of more balance has definitely been on my mind. Thank you so much for your support.

You can’t really get to bad of a burn if it hits your skin. I dip my finger in those was melter things because it makes little finger prints. It doesn’t hurt it’s just a bit hot. It cools in seconds.

[@novaknavekey]

The pink one is so sinister looking! Love it.

[@gamma.goblin]

the light pink and the light blue ones are so pretty like crystal formations!

[@sisideblanc2959]

I LOVE THE PINK AND BLUE AND WHITE ONES! THEY LOOK SO MUCH LIKE CORAL!

[@SoCraftastic]

Thank you for watching! ^-^

[@UtahGmaw99]

Back in the 1970's these were very popular. I saw some as big as 18-24 inches high that looked like castles. These would be a lot easier to make. Nice how to video.

[@SoCraftastic]

Wow, I was born in the wrong era for sure. I'm glad "trends" come back over time at least. Thank you for watching!

[@strawberrycream2974]

Personally I like his best. I like the way the colors wrap around each other.

[@ilenecashman7905]

Love candles. Years ago I made sand candles great gifts and very unique. Another great way to use candle pieces. Can use for any candle creation. Go to a garage sale and buy old pans.

[@shelbybryannn]

That is sooooo cool! It looks like a coral reef!

[@emmacheser6345]

BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH THE CANDLES!!!!! Yassssss

[@reshmapreethi8143]

candle under the water great idea & these candles looks like beautiful art pieces

[@SoCraftastic]

Thank you for watching! ^-^

[@Lit.tlera_Candle]

THANK YOUUU…!! Like i scream out to say it..! You are an angel..! 💞💞💞

[@fauzanfairus]

Aw jeez THEY'RE SO PRETTY!

[@GlowingEra22]

I love how you include your cat and speak for him / her adorable 😍 that’s why I subscribed to you , great ideas for candles thank you!

[@brookewoodman4557]

Oh my gosh those candles look so cool!

[@Firefly-tf8gu]

I love the dark blue one. It looks like crashing waves

[@stellasnoops]

This is art. You have literally came up with a new kind of art

[@ComicatCreations]

These are pretty much the coolest candles I have ever seen in my life!!! Watching the footage of y'all pouring them was so cool. Awesome project!!!

[@ProcrastinationQueen]

Wow, the pink one looks like a dragon, and the purple/blue one looks like a castle!

[@fkhan2006]

these are so pretty!!! but I have a question. can I put the wax in the microwave instead of the double boiler?

[@carolinefisher2447]

Wow now that's creativity

[@annicedavis5889]

You could take the wick from the larger colored candles and put them in the small pillar ones. That way you can hold the candle from the wick and keep your hand away from the lid. Also it gives you a larger wick just in case you do want to actually burn it. Overall awesome job!

[@jessicathunderheart7810]

They look like something from the movie The Dark Crystal so awesome!

[@weeks2580]

Somebody call threadbanger.

[@keithkogane1836]

Lexy Weeks You are now my soul mate

[@echeng4834]

Lexy Weeks rob would burn down their house

[@TiNaBLink]

That pink candle tho 😍

[@jellymicshelly]

I use to watch you when I was like 13 :) I'm 19 now and super happy to see you are still at it :)

[@agataslongo6519]

Oh my God that's so AWSOME!Recently, I haven't seen actual good diy's on youtube, but this video really got me impressed. Some of the candles look like those rocks from down the oceans, and all of them are terrific pieces of art. My favourite was the light purple one, although I like them all. Great work Sarah!

[@lisakiraly7227]

I just started making candles last week from old yankee candles I had!!!! THIS IS AMAZING! I didnt even KNOW this kind of thing existed! Any other videos on other creative and crazy ways to use wax?

[@RetroFaerieCraftTutorials]

I love these, the navy blue is my favourite.

[@avishakaushik4945]

I tried this. Turned out really well. Thank you ✨

[@Naydean21]

This is so fun and easy! I tried it as soon as seeing the video and now I'm going to make it a lesson for my gifted art club!

[@karl8457]

Very interesting and unique indeed! Is using soap for this project possible???

[@MaDi123poofMaGiC]

Just barely started seeing your videos in my subscriptions again, thought you stopped posting. Glad I’m seeing them again! Great video :)

[@gabrielle3028]

Sarah I absolutely loved this video!

[@StickyRice43]

These looks amazing!! Would it work with clear gel wax?

[@Tozischi]

Would it be worth placing a thick straw, or even something thicker around the wick? Then, after you have created the water candle, you remove the straw (or whatever) you still have access to the wick.

[@kelseymaypole7048]

I think this would be really interesting to do again with some yarn or string attached to the base candle. You could dunk it into the water and even spin it a bit while you pour it to get a different texture. Plus, your wrist wouldn't be in the way and no danger of burns. This is a great idea though, they look so neat. Like little candle explosions~

[@nataliamikkro2349]

So awesome and unique I can't wait to try this. My friends and boyfriend will love them as gifts! Thank you!!

[@ThePrincessnaeia]

WOW that is so cool I didn't know that something like this was possible. I can't choose a winner I love all of them.

[@user-mo4ms7je8k]

Just to give everyone a tip a great place to look for candles is garage sales! I find so many for cheap. Even like big decorative ones for less than a $1

[@tanishab9134]

This is SO cool!!!

[@ciarauimhurchu3392]

Oh my god u are my favourite KZbinr I love this video

[@SoCraftastic]

Thank you so much! :)

[@margaretsolomon9729]

I bet these would be great cast into resin and polished, to protect them. I worked with wax in the past and found that after a while they got super dusty and i couldn't clean them without them breaking.

[@SoCraftastic]

I agree, that would be a great way to make them more permanent. Once in a sculpture class we did a similar technique with a wax sculpture & plaster. We cast a metal piece, but resin is more accessible now since I don't personally have access to metal-melting equipment.

[@hookedandhemmed]

That pinkish one looked like a dragon to me in the intro haha

[@SoCraftastic]

I see that! It's like looking at shapes in the clouds. :D

[@mariamlapkowski4953]
