Candlemaking 101
Emily is reading about the early settlers and one of the activities that she chose to do today was candlemaking. First we melted parrafin with a couple of crayons for color. Then she took a wick and started dipping it. As time went on the candle began to get larger. She tried her hand a couple of different kinds. She is going to make the small double candles and tie them with a pretty bow to make tree ornaments. This was the first time I ever made candles. I think she did a great job for her first time!
