Craft Project: Natural Mood Lighting - Olive Oil Citrus Candles


I was asked to share this very cute craft project with all of my readers today and I think it's absolutely darling and so simple to make! You could use these olive oil citrus candles outdoors when you are entertaining, indoors during a romantic evening for two or make several of them and use at a family get-together...like a romantic wedding reception.

Natural Mood Lighting With Indie Lee
Clementines are for Lovers: Natural Citrus Candle- Sans Wax

Why burn toxic synthetic materials, or exorbitantly priced soy and bees wax, when the perfect citrus mood-lighting is sitting in your compost? Indie Lee, founder of the all-natural skincare line, Indie Lee & Co, shares one of her at-home secrets for an all-natural clementine candle - no wax necessary!

What You Need:

· 1 Clementine
· Olive Oil

How to Make It:

1. Cut clementine in half.
2. Carefully peel skin off as a whole.
3. Twist the inside into a wick.
4. Fill with a bit of olive oil.
5. Light and enjoy!

*Indie Tip: Cut a small design in the top half of the peel to make a creative candle lid!

About Indie Lee
Indie Lee is a natural ingredients advocate, who has devoted her life to educating consumers on the dangerous contaminants that consume our lives.

She took it upon herself to provide a healthy, non-toxic alternative. From this notion, Indie Lee & Co. was born.

Indie Lee & Co. was founded on the principle that women everywhere deserve to have access to a luxurious, all-natural alternative to the artificial, chemically-laden products on the market today.
