Beer Candles - Green and Otherwise

Wednesday March 12, 2008
St. Patrick's Day is around the corner, so it's time to bring out one of my favorite "food" candle projects - frothy mugs of beer! Candle makers make candles that look like apples and cinnamon rolls and pies, so why not make ones that look like beer? The Beer Candle project uses a combination of candle gel and candle wax. I like the gel better for these because it stays clear and actually does look like beer - bubbles and all. Substitute in a little green candle color for the amber - and you've got Green Beer candles - in honor of St. Patrick's Day - or any Irish or otherwise green-loving person you know. Erin Go Braugh!
