In Kislev, we bring light to illuminate miracles and ignite your dreams. Remember, darkness makes the light shine brighter.

Materials

Bottle caps

Crayons (or wax)

Pre-waxed wicks

Tin soup cans

Wax paper (optional)

Small cooking pan

Scissors

Water

Steps

1. If using crayons, remove paper labels, and put them (or the wax) in a clean, empty soup can.

2. Place wax paper on table. Place bottle caps on top, design side down. Place one pre-waxed wick inside each bottle cap.

3. Fill a small cooking pan with a couple inches of water. Place on stove, over a medium-high flame. Place soup can inside the pan to make a double boiler and melt the wax. Once the wax has melted, gently pour the melted mixture into the bottle caps.

4. Let the candles cool for 1-2 hours. Once they’ve cooled, trim the wicks.

5. Enjoy your homemade tea lights, and shine some light in the darkness.
