Not going to lie, that’s really impressive!

Oh, a little life pro tip for ya…

Assuming you’re more likely to want to keep this around as a decoration rather than burn it, it’ll likely eventually collect dust.

I’ve found that’s generally pretty easy to clean off just by rinsing it occasionally with some hot water to keep your decorative candles clean. 👍

Side note, would be interesting to see how those end up burning and how the wax decides to flow/melt…

Beautiful!

Was this made entirely by hand, or was it an actual pinecone dip? Either way, how would I expect such a candle to actually burn?

I splurged on a silicone mold to get that shape. But it wasn’t perfect given all the nooks and crannies that didn’t get enough wax. It took a few pours before I got this one.

I have no idea how it will burn, but I’ll find out!

This is so pretty!!

Thank you!! It’s almost too pretty to burn, but I really want to see if it burns well. I have a few versions that didn’t come out that well, so I’ll see how they do.
