Right folks, got another wee challenge for you all.
Let's see everyone's Swedish candles. Here's a mini one I've made and it's use really is just as a small campside candle, not your usual big stump sized one that can be used for cooking etc.
A fun wee challenge to practice those carving & crafting skills!
Lots of instructions online but you can find a short brief below:
•Saw off a small chunk of branch
•Baton into 4 pieces
•Carve a small groove in each piece making sure to keep them all relative in size.
•Place each piece back together & secure with cordage (bonus points for natural, I used twine here)
•Melt wax or pine resin and fill the 'cup'
•Place a wick inside and allow to harden
Then:
📷 Share a photo of the finished product!
