Davy managed to get some good grade tallow and he decided to have an impromptu candle making session
Melting down the tallow ready to use
Quick wick made from flax and set in the melted tallow
and a Kudlik type lamp made from a scallop shell
and both worked very well
but this one was definitely my favourite!
Really nice, bet you are looking forwards to the next power cut.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I have made candles several times but no tallow candles yet.
ReplyDeleteThe scallop shell is my favorite, too! So pretty and functional at the same time.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas..
