Following Directions

Don't follow MY directions for this craft!

Instead go to this blog here and follow HER directions.

I saw these candles and when A. stayed at my house we decided to make them.

I couldn't remember exactly how to make them......so I came up with my own idea.

They look nice, don't they.

But they are extremely flammable!

We used glue and PAINT mixed together

and then rolled them in cocoa powder

or curry powder.

It was my mom who said, "Isn't paint kind of flammable?"
Doh!
I guess these are just for looks.
This was a very good lesson in reading directions
and not substituting things in a recipe.
Or at least try not to use
such flammable items as substitutions!

Better luck next time!
