For this project, you will need halved walnut shells. You will need to scrape them and clean them out before you start this project.

Light a candle and wait for a little pool of wax to form.
Cut out two fabric triangles with a joining edge. Then glue the remaing edges together with the cocktail stick inside. I cut of the top of one of the edge spikes so it isn't sharp.
Pour some wax from the candle into the walnut shell. I fill it up half way so, once set, it is enough to hold the stick in place. Place the sail stick into the wax and hold in position for around 30 seconds to let the wax set around.
