Candle Creations

Hello! It's time to give you some updates on how and what I am doing! I've been really great over here, in my "new" (wow, it's been five weeks!) host family. I love the kids, they are amazing. They behave well and are fully autonome, which makes my work much easier. We play a lot and I try to spend as much time with them as possible. I don't really have any friends over here yet, so I bonded with the family very quickly and they are the ones I love to spend time with. Last weekend I wanted to do something with the kids - so we made candles. It was such a time - consuming process, we couldn't do it during the week, as they have school, homework etc. I probably enjoyed it the most out of all of us! :D heh. 

What we did is we used a Candle kit that the kids already had had before. There was some wax in it, a yellow pot where you melt the wax, crayons, which add color to your wax...some spatulas and wick.



We melted the wax by putting the yellow pot over boiling water and shreded the crayons over it, so the wax got some color to it.



There were some candle moulds in the kit as well, so that's what we used. Once the wax was all colored and melted, we just poured it into the moulds. 


When you're done, you need to put the candle in the fridge for 24 hours.


Et voila! These are my candles :-)





Here's Baptiste with his candle! :-)



And Lilou!


Have a great weekend everybody!
