Hello, welcome to a new blog.
Greetings to all of you friends of diyhub, I'm glad to be back here to continue with the topic of the moment, #diytropical, and this time I'm going to show you how I used a seashell to make a candle, it's more than anything a decorative idea, I also wanted to try and see how this candle would turn out, since I want to emphasize that it's the first time I make one and I didn't know if it was going to turn out well, but it turned out very well, and I can say that I already learned how to make candles. On the other hand, I will use the pieces of candles that have already been used and since there are a few left, I also put together the remaining pieces and that will be a new candle, let's get to work.
- Candle pieces
- A seashell
- A glass container
- Imitation stones and pearls for decoration
- Blue and brown eyeshadow
Como tenía varios pedazos de velas desechadas,las junte todas y las fui colocando en un envase de vidrio,para luego colocar ese envase en una olla con agua,para que así se empiece a derretir la vela a baño maría,este paso lleva un tiempo de al menos unos 5 minutos para que empiece derretir la vela.
Paso 1
Since I had several pieces of discarded candles, I gathered them all and placed them in a glass container, then placed that container in a pot with water, so that the candle begins to melt in a double boiler. This step takes at least 5 minutes for the candle to begin to melt.
Mientras que esperaba a que se derritiera la vela,pase a pintar un poco concha con sombra para ojos de color azul,la pintura normal sirve también pero no tengo del color azul,y pensé en que si coloco sombra para ojos que pinta bien entonces también debe pintar otras cosas también, mínimo un poco de color.
Paso 2
While I was waiting for the candle to melt, I went on to paint a little bit of shell with blue eyeshadow. Regular paint works too, but I don't have any blue, and I thought that if I put on eyeshadow that looks good, then it should also paint other things too, at least a little bit of color.
Después de un rato los pedazos de vela estaban derretidos,y también le coloque sombra de color azul,y con la ayuda de un paño fui colocando la mezcla en la concha marina.
Paso 3
After a while the pieces of candle were melted, and I also put blue eyeshadow on it, and with the help of a cloth I placed the mixture on the seashell.
Después de agregar la mezcla le coloque el hilo que tienen las velas, tratando de que quedará en el centro, también le coloque antes de que se enfríe la mezcla unas perlas como decoración.
Paso 4
After adding the mixture, I placed the thread that the candles have, trying to keep it in the center. I also placed some pearls as decoration before the mixture cooled.
Luego pase a colocarle las piedras de imitación y también le coloque un poco de polvo de sombras marrón de un lado para disimular la arena de playa.
Paso 5
Then I moved on to adding the rhinestones and also added a little brown eyeshadow powder on one side to hide the beach sand.
Por último deje que secará bien y se enfriará la cera,está concha marina la traje del viaje que hice a la playa hace ya una semana,durante el tiempo que estuve en la playa no conseguí muchas conchas marinas,pero de último momento conseguí una en la arena y la ví y lo primero que se me vino a la mente fue hacer esta linda vela. Les doy las gracias a todos ustedes por haberme acompañado hoy,y también si no has participando en esta creativa idea tropical te animo a que participes y también muestres tu creatividad en la comunidad de diyhub,espero sus comentarios para saber si esta idea les gustó,chaoooo hasta la próxima.
Finally, let it dry well and the wax cool. I brought this seashell back from a trip I made to the beach a week ago. During the time I was at the beach I didn't find many seashells, but at the last minute I found one on the sand and saw it and the first thing that came to my mind was to make this cute candle. I thank you all for joining me today, and also if you haven't participated in this creative tropical idea I encourage you to participate and also show your creativity in the diyhub community. I await your comments to know if you liked this idea, bye until next time.

My personality is based on different ways of expressing my creativity, conquering several new facets in which I learn how to express myself. During my time here, I have shared several of my activities as a craftswoman, drawer, jewelry maker, cook, and sewer, gaining more experiences for my time to have my art studio. I also want to continue learning more ways to continue expressing myself.
