Organic Orange Candle DIY - Burns for hours and smells like summer! 🍊

Cut your orange in half then core the orange, leaving the skin intact. Then cut slices from center to the the outer skin. Make sure not to cut the center “wick” area. Next, take the center orange out and eat it. 😋 I found that using a grape fruit spoon worked best to hollow out the orange.
Pour olive oil into the hollowed orange, just below the top of the stem. This will allow the oil to ignite the stem. You can add a top orange piece to your candle, just make sure to cut a hole in the center for ventilation. I burned this orange for hours and it smelled like summer 🍊

Cinco de Mayo Tablescape- Perfect for Spring

This is such a fun, simple and inexpensive centerpiece. Last year I had this up for a #cincodemayo party and everyone adored this decor trio. The one trick you need to be made aware of is that you have to use whole limes or lemons in the center of a cylinder vase that does not have a second vase inside of it. This will help so that the sliced lemons or limes stay against the wall of the vase. And the lemons and limes will keep the consistency of the color in each vase. Then add your water and a floating candle to the top. It's a simple as that! Enjoy!

Transform your space with a DIY minimalist wall art canvas!

I had a wall the was so big and awkward to decorate. But when I was searching for art, my style art was $1500 and upwards. So I decided to make my own art instead. And honestly, I like the personal touch of my creation better.

Directions: Start by crafting a sturdy frame using 2x2x8" lumber, assembling it with screws. Lay your canvas sheet on a flat surface, stretch it over the frame, and secure it by stapling it tightly. Enhance the canvas with a unique touch using rubber window seal strategically placed on top and adhesrwd to the canvas. Apply vinyl tile adhesive to create a personalized design, ensuring an even coat and fun design with an adhesive spreader. Allow it to dry overnight. Finally, paint the entire canvas, brushing in the same direction as the adhesive marks for a polished finish. Consider spray painting for an alternative aesthetic. Elevate your decor with this chic and budget-friendly project!

My total cost was under $100. I already had the paint and paint brush

Make and Ordinary Taper Candle into a Creative Twisty Taper Candle

Here's a unique and mesmerizing technique to turn ordinary taper candles into extraordinary works of art. All you need is a taper candle, hot water, and a smooth roller to embark on this creative journey.

Step 1: Soak and Soften
Start by immersing your taper candles in hot water for 10 to 15 minutes. This step is crucial as it softens the wax, making it more pliable and ready for transformation. Patience is key, so let the candles soak and allow the heat to work its magic.

Step 2: Remove and Roll
Take one candle out at a time, ensuring they are adequately softened. Grab your acrylic roller or any smooth roller of your choice. Gently and evenly roll the candle on a flat surface. This process not only flattens the candle but also helps to create a smooth, uniform texture.

Step 3: The Art of Twisting
Once your candle is flattened, it's time to unleash your creativity. Slowly twist the candle, allowing the wax to form captivating spirals. The softened wax will respond to your touch, creating beautiful, unique patterns. Experiment with different twisting techniques to achieve various results.

Tips for Success:
1. Work on one candle at a time to maintain control over the shaping process.
2. Ensure that the roller is clean and smooth to avoid any unwanted markings on your candle.
3. Embrace imperfections – the beauty of this art lies in its organic and unpredictable nature.

A collection of one-of-a-kind taper candles that showcase your artistic flair. These transformed candles make for stunning decorative pieces, perfect for enhancing your home ambiance or as thoughtful gifts for friends and family.

Transform Your Wine Bottle with Disco Ball Tiles: DIY Wine Bottle and Cherries Decor! Make these fun and unique wine bottle and cherries using disco ball tiles.

Comment LINK and I'll send you a DM with the products I used.

I had a wine bottle that I saved from when my husband was building our home and we broke out a bottle of wine and sat in the freezing cold drinking it. We had no heat other than a torpedo blower 🥶 I've saved this wine bottle for 3 years and I finally figured out a way to preserve it and make it into a part of our home decor. And the cherries I've seen all over Instagram and fell in love with them the first time I saw them. So I figured why not give them a try?!?!

A tip I learned during the process:
Start in the middle of the wine bottle and cherry and work your way up. As the bottle or styrofoam ball tapers up, it's best to add one row of times at a time.
