Hello my name is Maria and this is my first video. I am a candle maker and such a big fan of everything Diy . And today I would like to share with you how you can make pillar candles with concrete bases with stones inside. They will make your home feel cozy in Christmas time. So let’s start! You need to prepare paraffin wax, concrete, water, pitcher for wax, wicks for pillar candles, any moulds, I prefer to use empty jars from pringls. Also you need some oil and glue. And you need stones. Mix your concrete with the water , mix it very well. concrete should not be too thin. Take your mold. Put a little bit of oil on walls inside. After that start to put concrete inside. Don’t rush, add your stones and again concrete. Ready. Now you need to leave it to dry. I normally Leave it for overnight. When it’s dry you can stick your wick inside. You need a double boiler to melt the wax. After The wax is ready you should pour it Into molds. Leave it for a few hours and take it out. Cut your wicks. Now my favorite part! Let’s decorate it. I like to use acrylic paints , Gold leaf and glitter. I hope you will make such a beautiful concrete candles!
