EGGSHELL CANDLES:

Eggshells make perfect candle holders, with a little glue, melted wax, and a wick. Dye the hard-cooked eggs before you start, and be sure to place the wick so it will stick out above the shell.

Complete Instructions:

• Candle eggs: Hard-boil, dye, and dry the eggs.
•  Break the shell crown of an egg by gently tapping with a spoon.
•  Remove and discard the egg's contents with a small spoon. Pour colored dye inside the eggshell, drain, and place the shell upside down on a paper towel to dry. 
• To make the candle, first melt candle wax (from a crafts store) in a double boiler.
•  Next, using a glue gun, place a small drop of glue inside the egg, on the bottom. Put a wick in the glue spot; it should reach above the eggshell.
•  Wind the wick around a toothpick three times and gently place the toothpick across the egg opening. Using a small ladle, spoon, or funnel, pour enough wax to fill 7/8 of the egg, making sure to evenly surround the wick. 
• Allow the wax to harden, remove the toothpick, and cut the wick to size. Place the candles in eggcups. 
• Remember to never leave burning candles unattended.
