Water balloon candle holders



These are so awesome! I made these with an old candle that I re-melted down in the jar and then poured into a double boiler. You could make these with colored wax ( for the up coming holidays!).
The instructions are shown in the picture but i will write them out.

1- Fill water balloons with water, fill as many as you need ( you will be popping them)
2- Dip water balloon in the already melted wax that is in the double boiler, let the first layer dry. To get the flat bottom on the candle holder hold the balloon lightly on a sheet of wax paper until dry.
3- dip again, do this until you have the desired wax thickness. Make sure you flatten the bottom EVERY time you dip the balloon.
4- After all the layers of wax are completely dry hold the base of the candle holder with scissors or a needle in the other hand, pop the water balloon and remove from the inside.
