1. To make the star candles choose two different coloured wax sheets from the candle making kit and cut out three different sized stars from each colour using cookie cutters or a blunt knife.
  2. Stack the stars up so that the colours and points alternate and the smallest stars are at the top. (pic a)
  3. Push a darning needle through the stack of stars. Remove, and carefully push a length of wick into the hole. Trim so that 1cm sticks out the top. (pic b)
  4. To make the striped candles cut several colours of wax sheet into 4.5cm squares using a blunt knife. (pic c)
  5. Carefully push the squares into the glass candle holder and press down around all the edges so there are no air bubbles.
  6. Push a darning needle through the wax and insert a wick as before (see step 3). (pic d)
