Yield: 6
Cost: $25
Equipment
- Old pot for water
- Wax pitcher, old clean can or glass measuring cup
- Disposable plastic cups
Materials
- Beeswax pellets
- Pressed Flowers
- Silicone Molds
- Ribbon
- Fragrance oils or essential oils
Instructions
- Place your plant material in the molds.
- Melt the beeswax in a double boiler on the stove. You could use any candle wax for this project. You could also melt it in the microwave oven.
- Once the wax is melted remove it from the stove and pour it into smaller plastic cups.
- Add fragrance to each cup. The amount of fragrance is up to you. I used about 50 drops of lavender for some and about 30 drops of lilac fragrance oil.
- Then pour your wax into the molds.
- Once hardened, remove the wax from the molds and place a ribbon through the hole to use as a hanger.
Notes
Larger plant material like this lavender may need a little help staying in place for a minute.
