DIY: Fire Bowls Lighter

Here comes the next part of my post chrismas upcyling. I created two different kinds of Fire Bowls Lighter.

For the first one you need:

• Wax residues, e.g. old candles from the Advent wreath or wax waste from New Year's Eve.
• Toilet paper rolls
• Newspaper/packing paper
• Chopped branches from the dried Christmas tree (you can also use wood shavings or guinea pig litter).
• An old pot (It could be difficult to clean it again.)
  
• Wooden clothes pegs
• scissors

Put the wax in an old pot:

 

Cut the toilet paper rolls in half with scissors.

Then make small pocket shapes out of the paper and stick them into the half toilet paper rolls

Then fill the small pockets with the chopped pine branches and seal them

Melt the wax on the cooker and dip the small packets into the wax using a wooden clothes peg.

Place on a surface to harden, e.g. an old cardboard box.

For the second:

• leftover wax, e.g. old candles from the Advent wreath
• muffin paper moulds
• chopped branches from the dried up Christmas tree

For the second variant, I filled the chopped fir branches into paper muffin moulds and poured the wax directly over them:
