First of November is a day to remember the persons we loved that sadly had to leave us, this year we had to say goodbye to too many and although I'm not religious I wanted to do something special this year to remember all of our loved ones that are gone.
Ok, this was the first time I did this so bear with me... I didn't knew all I was going to need before I started but I'll guide you through it!
I started by choosing a glass bottle from my lot and melting an old candle we didn't knew were to place since we moved. I placed the candle in the jar and then in a pot with water and put on the stove.
You have to be careful to not loose the wick, I hold it with a cord because when the candle melted and filled the space it got smaller, so small I had to add another piece of wax I had:
I melted the grey piece in another container and joined it after melted or else the colors would have mixed up together. But even after that the jar was too empty and I still had candle-wick left so I decide to actually melt a whole candle and add it till the end of the wick:
There was some wax left and I had a small jelly jar all cleaned up and ready so I made another small candle:
Well, it's nothing much but it's personal. We will light this candles on Halloween night in remembrance of our deceased loved ones! May you rest in peace!




Très émouvante attention, j'en ai le coeur serré !
