Chubby Candle ..

[Elina]

I'm after one of these low wide candles, like 9" or so wide for the coffee table. I have three small ones at the moment I want to replace with just one. Not ebay, I want to be able to go out & buy from a store. Has anyone seen any on their travels? I keep looking but I haven't seen any so far.

mallyh, Warrington is a little too far to travel, thankyou for taking the trouble to look though x

Tie string to a metal curtain ring (odds n sods box). Drop ring into molten wax (old wax drips melted). Wind string around toothpick till wax hardens, cut surplus length....voila
