How to Make a Light Spectacular Candle

What you need: Washed out lunch milk carton. Old wax crayons. Pot. Pan. Pencil. String. Wick, which isn’t lead based. Big pieces of crushed ice. If desired a candle scent.
What to do: 1) Poke hole in bottom of milk carton. 2) Open top of milk carton all the way. Tie wick to pencil, balance pencil on sides of top (pencil lying flat across it). Wick should go down middle of carton and through hole in bottom. 3) Tape wick to bottom of carton so it is stretched tight. 4) Peel paper off crayons. 5) Melt wax crayons in pot. You can put a liquid scent in it, or at some arts and craft stores they have wax flakes that smell that you can melt. 6) Put milk carton in pan. Pour big crushed ice in milk carton. 7) Over this pour wax. Let harden. Ice will melt to bottom of hole. 8) Peel off carton from wax candle. When wick is dry, light it. Light will go through parts where ice was, making this one cool candle.
