Introduction: Easy and Stylish DIY Spiral Candle
Hi everyone, this is an easy, simple, quick and fun tutorial on making a spiral candle. The specialty of this candle is that it burns in a spiral pattern.
For the candle, you will need-
1.Candle wax
2.Cotton wick
3.Pringles box
4.Cardboard cylinder
5.Parchment paper
6.Pan, water, bowl
Step 1: Cut the Pringles Box
Cut the pringles box from the top making it 7cm to 8cm long
Step 2: Cardboard Cylinder
Take the cardboard cylinder (make sure its the same length as your cut pringles box), stick the parchment paper on the cardboard cylinder.
Step 3: Cotton Wick
Wrap the cotton wick around the cardboard cylinder in a spiral form leaving extra wick at the top which can be cut later.
Step 4: Stick the Cardboard Cylinder
Stick the cardboard cylinder to the base of the pringles box making sure its in the center of the box.
Step 5: Melt the Wax
To melt the wax we will use the double boiler method in which we take a pan filled with water and place our bowl filled with wax on top of it.
Step 6: Pour the Wax
Pour the wax in between the pringles and cardboard cylinder and let it dry.
Step 7: Cut It Out
After the candle is fully dry remove the pringles box using a blade. Repeat the same procedure with the cardboard cylinder separating it from the candle.
Step 8: Light It
And just like that, in 7 steps you have a beautiful spiral candle.
