Orange Pumpkin candle

Here's a fun little diy for you to try this weekend.

I made this cute jack o'lantern pumpkin candle.

How did I do it you say?

Here we go! 

Grab some oranges, the larger the better.

Grab yourself some large oranges and cut the top off it.

Proceed to hallow the middle out with a spoon and knife. 

Once it's cleaned out, take a sharp knife and cut a cute

little face on it. 

Here it is up close

Preheat your oven at 225 and grab a cookie sheet to set your orange on.   You could make as many as you want,  I just wanted to give it a try.  Once you have it on the cookie sheet, wade up some foil and

push it into the cavity of the orange so that it holds it form. 

Put it in the oven for 2 hours to dry at 225.

Once dry pierce holes on each side to run some wire through

so that you can hang it.  You could also make a bunch and make a garland of them too. 

I moved it around the house to see where I wanted it to go,

here it is on the mantle. 

I put a led battery operated candle in the pumpkin

and I think it's super cute hanging, but either way

it's cute! 

Let me know if you make one and send pics!
