@@briezzy365 I’m confused by the Tesla part of your comment.

As a society that is increasing our ways of being wasteful because social media loves videos on cutting things up etc I can understand why some are pointing out something like wasting water. Unfortunately one of the defining characteristics of being human is being wasteful. Honestly I thought she was using rubbing alcohol at first since I don’t watch her channel and don’t really care that it is actually water but your comment in general kind of had me confused.
Annie’s art studio: Annie, if you poured these just a little bit less tall, leaving more space at the top, you could sell them is “water candles”, with a little planchette to hold a packet of wax - impregnated wicks. They’re very pretty, and you wouldn’t have to leave a whole lot of space for your customers to be able to put a layer of water on top of your acrylic, and then a layer of oil in which to float the wick holder. You would pretty much be the only person selling that product, and the fact that you have mostly filled the column with acrylic and inclusions would mean that they’d be a whole lot easier to clean because they’d be much more shallow containers to have to reach into for cleaning.❤️ Edited to correct the auto correction.

We used to make these all the time, but we used baby oil instead of acrylic, and used a cork to keep everything inside. Bonus: the baby oil would take on the fragrance and you could use it like perfume
@@delightful75 then there's the extra "I'm just making sure some people think the way I do" comment on the original thing. Cause I did the same rotflmao
I just use candle holders to make new candles or hold small things. Makeup supplies, art supplies, sewing supplies, scissors, seeds for my birds, plant seeds, ect.
I up cycled my old candle glass jars with lids- saved them for one year. Filled them with cookies I made homemade for a Christmas gift each cookies fit the jar wrapped in cupcake holders. Perfect 👍🏼 🎉
My mom uses them to put fake flowers in like a vase for them. She uses them and puts rocks or glass pebbles from the store in them so the fake flower stem can sit in them. To add a bit extra you can use a ribbon to make a bow around the middle. Make sure to heat seal the ends of the ribbon to prevent fraying. My mom reuses different sized ones for different types of plants. You can also use the ones with lids to store things like crystals, rings you wear, and other things you might use or collect.
I have so many of these and started using them for tall tropical frozen drinks lol I'm about to do this and make some holiday and birthday gifts! Yours are so beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing ♥️

I just love this ..they are so beautiful..I love the shabby chic look without trying..love what you do , do what you love....don't mind what others say, life's too short ..hugs from a grandmother in Florida
Too cool. I love them. Very creative way to recycle boo. I just subbed. Looking forward to seeing what else you have done. Stay safe and always blessed, cherish the simple things ♥ 🙏
you should insert the little tiny glass oil lamp inserts you can refill with oil before the resin cures. They could be used as oil lamps when the lights go out or on the table at dinner!
Okay but for real can we get a tutorial on using old wax to make new candles? I have like twenty and I want to know how to make new candles! How and where do I get new wicks?!
Beautiful work also wanted to say thank you for using gloves while working with the epoxy. I've seen some amazing resin artists but then I see they don't use gloves or anything.
nooo dont use the microwave. theres a metal bit at the bottom of the candle. i usually throw the candle in the freezer for a bit and the wax pops right out
Gosh iam new to this whole witch stuff but what i know is that you did a really good job im definetly gonna make a couple of these diys and i also love how you also took the time to respond to almost all the comments ❤
You know I really miss seeing this in stores. Lbs I remember these use to be sold in stores when I was a child. I always wondered what happened I wanted to add some to my house as decoration in certain areas! Those are cute
I thought this too. She could of used them for things that could of been reusable or just left them dried in the jar, it looked so pretty dry with no epoxy. Now it’s just waiting to be in landfill 😪
Exactly. She just made them unrecyclable (unless you want to dig out all the resin), and made biodegrade material, not biodegradable. Something that could’ve been useful, now useless. It isn’t upcycled. It was turned into junk. It’s the opposite of upcycling

Such a great I have bunch of these candle vessels. Prefect for a water float to prevent fire from the items in the bottom.. I think.. maybe I have to do experiments first
I use the boiling water method too. It's clean and works. Also, you can re-melt all of the disks of wax and make new candles. I add the bits left in the bottom of T-lights too. You can buy wicks on amazon or make your own with twine dipped in wax. I would never put a candle in the microwave! They put metal wick holders in there. I'm not trying to clean that mess up!
You can store your tea leaves in them! We buy our tea in bags, so I just pour all of it into those jars and label them, so there is less clutter in the kitchen. Also we use them for coffee and spices
Heating in the microwave will unevenly heat the glass with the possibility of making it shatter. And heating in a pot of water on the stove is just a pain.

I think they were probably saying if you heat the wax then you can pour all the parts to make one new candles. Lol

The acrylic is ducking stupid and wasteful

Aww mannn thought that was goin to be a candle 🕯 😢😂
I’m looking to see if I can do that & remake a candle with dry eucalyptus leaves & dry lavender.
These would be great as tea light holders.. just leave some space at the top
Bringing the 90's back with these! This look was everywhere ❤
Right!!

After looking through the comments, the resin she's using is called Mas Epoxies Deep Pour X.
I'm glad it's deep pour because I was like, wow that is thicc and gonna smoke
Gratitude 🤗💐
thank you
Just looked at the Mas website and the Deep Pour X costs $218.99 for a 1.5 gallon !! (12/1/23)
just use clear elmers glue cheaper
Buying these to put little tea light candles on top so I have a clear candle with a wax top 😌

In case anyone else is thinking of doing this: Always remember to use lots of ventilation and wear masks when working with materials like epoxies!
Yes that is extremely important thank you so much for sharing and take care
They would be cute to use for floating candles or sand art too.
After name dropping the resin, i thought it'd be linked in the description but it wasn't 😭😭😭

it's mas epoxies' deep pour x.

I pour all the wax in one big jar. Get a big candle warmer. It works on all the wax you've saved. Mystery scent. A little bit of everything.
This is like something my Grandma has💀
I need a show like this that does jewelry making
So pretty ❤
Hello! Could you pop that link into this thread for the resin you're using? ❤️

It sounds like Nikkietutorials Dutch accent when she says Halllo. 😂
Really? I don't hear it 🤔
I use those candles for glasses. Highball glasses
That's really pretty
Omg 😆 I want to do this. I’m going to do this.
Could you pour a layer of candle wax on top & turn it into a candle?
Probably not a great idea. Resin is plastic and will burn/create toxic fumes. Possibly even flammable
That would have made a pretty gel candle. 😍
It would be more environment friendly.
Would have been a bonfire.

You should add a candle wick when reusing and recycling the old candle jars to make them centerpieces
