The genius new way people are using black Walmart salad bowls! | The genius new way people are using black Walmart salad bowls! | By Hometalk | You want to pick up two bowls. Make sure they are ceramic or glass and that they are heat proof. I took them home and I'm going to give them a coat of spray paint. Once the paint is dry, these bowls have a really nice textured look. I'm just going to use some really strong glue to adhere them together. In the top bowl, I am going to add three wicks. I'm just going to use a little bit of hot glue to secure them to the bottom. Then, I'm going to grab two wooden skewers and wrap the wick around the skewers. This is just going to hold everything in place. Great way to make own candles is to reuse existing candle wax. I have a couple of these Dollar Tree tall pillar candles and I'm going to place them in some boiling water. Now, make sure you're wearing gloves. These can get really hot and I'm just going to gently boil this until all the wax is melted. Pour the wax from all the candles into a metal container with a handle. I'm opting to add a little essential oil for some scent and now we're just going to pour that melted wax then you're going to want to walk away for about twenty-four hours. When it is completely set, you can trim the wicks down and use your candle. I hope this inspired you to grab a ceramic salad bowl from Walmart and make your own. Separate the layers of a patterned paper napkin. Cut the paper napkin as needed. Now, we are going to actually iron the paper napkin onto the taper. Heat and iron to medium low heat, not too hot. Let the candle cool and start to use in your own home decor. Fill a heat-safe container with hot water between one and 110 degrees. Place a tapered candle in the hot water and let's sit for 10 minutes. Can candle works best for this. After 10 minutes, pull the candle from the water and then wrap the candle in some wax paper. Take a rolling pin and press down on the middle of the candle. Once the middle section is flattened, take the candle and gently twist it into the shape that you want. When you get the twist that you want, place the candle in cold water and will set the candle in its new shape. Then, have fun displaying your new twisted taper candle. Take painters tape and tape off sections on a taper candle. Make sure that the edges are pressed down securely on the edges of the tape. Once taped off, paint light coats of acrylic paint in the open sections of the candle in the color or colors of your choice. Let dry completely. Try displaying them in numbered groupings and vary the height of your candlesticks. A variety of colors, textures, and patterns make the display even more interesting and unique. Start by breaking apart some pillar wax and add it to a pan to melt. Half of that, melt the mixture. A double boiler is ideal but if you don't have one, you can use a baking tin or metal bowl on top of a pot with water. Next, grab some crayons and choose colors. Take off the paper and add them to the wax. Half of that, melt the mixture. Then, grab a recycle carton and unfold it. Cut two slits on either side of the top. Wrap the wick around the straw or chopstick to keep it in place. Then grab some ice. Begin adding ice to the carton mold. Then pour the wax over the ice and allow it to glue. Repeat this process in all different colors. After they have pulled, grab a towel and carefully cut and rip away the carton. Use them together for a fun party centerpiece or separate to add a pop of color all around your home. Saw some candles from Pottery Barn. I thought it'd be fun to try making them myself. I'm going to put a little glue into a small container and then add a bit of paint. Now that I have the glue tinted, I'm going to paint it all over the glass dish on the outside. I'm going to leave these for a few hours before moving on. Using some Mod Podge, I'm going to paint it around the dishes. I can sprinkle the white glitter all over it and then when it dries, the glitter will stay in place. I grabbed these pillar candles from the Dollar Store and I'm going to melt them down. I'm just going to use a couple of skewers to hold the wicks in place. I want to add some essential oil to give my candles a beautiful scent.
