Make candles
As a run up to Christmas, how about starting with making some aromatic candles yourself? All you need is some wax, a heating tray, wicks, fragrance and moulds. To experiment more, add some glitter into the wax or coffee beans for a different texture. But if you want to keep it simple, stick to the cylindrical shape and experiment with colours like beige, cream, pastel pinks, mauves and blues.
