Preparing the lamps is an important steps. It has to be clean, and ready to be a container for the wax...
I broke the uper side of the lamps.... With a hammer ( technically it's not a real hammer, but it's a traditional Moroccan thing wich play the same role as a hammer but for dry fruits and spices)
Then I cleaned the inside of it from this white powder... And for sure I dried it.
The final thing of this step is to stick it on any kind of board ( i did a small one so I can move it easily)

Melting the Wax

I broke the candles and pot it in a pan on light fire so it doesn't burn... I've left it for sometime then added a couple of pieces es of wax colors to color it... And I left everything melting for 5 min.

Perfuming and Decoration the Wax

The candle is still a wax and still on fire... I've added the dried flowers, and some perfume ( it made a little scary reaction,, but it's normal kuz it contains alcohol )
The wax is now ready ...

Pouring the Wax in the Lamps

Now, since the wax is ready I pot it in the lamps lightly ( I rewinded everything tho...but okey)
It was good at the end, it doesn't have to be perfect...

Drying It and Unmolding It

I didn't want to wait for a long time so I used the freezer and it worked.... within 20min it was ready.
I broke the glass and cut the extra hemp to have it all done

The Final Step <3
