Beautiful Candle Globes

I like

I am making them now, how large is the actual globe in circumference? I made 1 small one and I have another larger one ready to go. This is quite neat, and I love the stenciling on the one

You only, actually, use about 1 lb of wax for the globe. You need the suggested amount to accomplish the dipping. You will be able to make several from 5 lbs.

The balloon doesn't pop when dipped in the wax because of the cool water inside the balloon. The reference to "5 lbs of wax" is just the size of the candle I used for melting. But, you do need enough wax to be able to dip the balloon down into. And, actually, 5 lbs of wax sounds like a lot, but wax is quite heavy.

5 pounds of wax? They are beautiful, but would be very expensive to make.

wont the balloon blast wn dipped in a hot wax...

so so amazing

that is so neat! I love it!

Don't be silly, using it is the point. There's a tea light in the bottom. When the tea light is used up, simply put in a new one.

This is lovely! Though i'd never use it... It's too pretty!

These look fantastic! I'd love to try it someday!

wow these are really nifty!
I need to start hoarding the left-over candles at work...

wow!
