AY Honors/Shrubs - Advanced/Requirements

Start melting wax about 30 minutes before the club meeting starts. Cut wax into chunks if it comes in a large sheet. Another source of wax is old candles that you no longer wish to use (Pathfinders could collect these up from home). You can buy the colours for the white wax, or use Crayola brand Crayons. Some lower quality brands do not melt like the Crayola brand does.

a. Free-form sand candle

Break wax up in chunks and place in a cheese tin. Then place cheese tin a in pot with several inches of water. Heating wax up in pot will just cause you more work scrubbing the hardened wax from the inside of the pot. While the wax is melting get some wet sand and just make a free form hole in whatever shape you like, by using a jar, glass or others.
