Remove the Metal Case
Now you want to take the candles out of the metal case and if you can remove the wick now,
When i was doing it the wick was stuck in the candle but you can just leave it in the candle for now.
Put the candles in a glass jar, put the jar in a pan of warm water,
Put the pan on the heat till it all melts.

Preparing the Mint Tin (altoids Tin)
Now put 2 wicks from the tea lights into the tin and glue them down so that they don't move then the wax melts.
Finishing Off the Candle
Now you want to add the melted wax to the tin, and set it to one side and let it harden.
This is when i added some thing extra, i cut up a matchbook and glued the strike pad to the inside of the tin.
Then i glued 7 matches to a match stick and placed it in the lid, this makes it very easy to pull one off when you need one.
NOW ITS FINISHED AND YOU HAVE A COOL CANDLE IN A TIN!
