Oof it's been a hell of a long time since I've updated. Sorry about that. Here are some ways to make candles and other lighting options.
•Short-Term Camping Light•
-Ingredients-
- Full bottle of Mountain Dew
- Baking soda
- Peroxide
Drink a bottle of Mountain Dew till it's 1/4 full, add a small amount(about 1 teaspoon) of baking soda and three cap-fulls of peroxide. Shake well.
•Candles Out Of Pine Resin
-Ingredients-
- Tin can to melt the resin in
- Candle container
- Wick
- A knife
- The resin(of course)
Melt the resin(doesn't matter how), then filter/pick out all the chunks/yuck after the resin is boiled down to a liquid. Then you pour a little bit of the resin into the candle holder to help set a place for the wick. Now dip the wick into the hot resin quickly. This is to make sure the wick will remain straight while you are pouring the excess resin into the candle holder. Put the wick in and let it harden for a few seconds. Use toothpicks(or straws depending on how wide your candle will be) and keep it that way till it hardens, which will take roughly 10-15 minutes.
•Crayola Candle
-Ingredients-
- 1+ Crayon(s) with the paper wrapping
- Lighter
Just light the crayon. It will last about 15 minutes per crayon, so these are good in times of short use, but terrible if you need them to stay lit for longer.
Hope you enjoyed this and these have helped you!! I plan on making chapters more often. Take it easy!
