CANDLES-
I found the glass for $5 at a local antique store.
To temper the glass, I heat a large pot of water and add the glass and slowly bring to low boil. I remove and let cool down.
I heat the candle wax to 185 degrees and add 15-20 drops essential oil of choice. I let the wax cool down to 140 before pouring into the glass (be very careful).
I add dried flowers of choice after the wax has had some time to harden, but still a bit soft on top. After 8-24 hrs the candles are ready to burn.
RESOURCES & FAVORITES-
GreenStalk Garden - Perfect for starting a garden with limited gardening space, or even just an extra planting area for plants you'd like to keep up and away from bug pressure. We LOVE ours and use it for herbs, lettuces, strawberries etc. I'm planning to get a few more, and they also make amazing gifts.
