Making Seashell Candles is such a fun thing to do, specially now as we are moving into the holiday season.
I've seen them in different online magazines (click images) and thought I bring them all together here.
They look so wonderful and festive, and I think they make great personal gifts too.
How do you make seashell candles? In short: Take some deep and straight standing shells, fill them with melted wax, place wicks with holders into the bottoms and let them dry. You can pick up a block of wax and a bag of wicks at your local craft store.
For detailed instructions and a video to watch go to Martha Stewart.

Well this could be fun!! And here I was thinking of making teacup candles...me, the shore girl! :-)
Love the rustic look of the oyster shells!
You've given me an idea... a play on something my sweet mama used to make. If it works out, I'll let you know :-)

Lovely! great idea
Love this! What a beautiful gift this would make - do I have time do do them before 12/25??? Hmmmmmm. If not I'll definitely do it for the summertime! Thanks for the fab idea!
