I found my Citronella Oil at a nearby Health Hut, Michaels didn’t carry the oil, just the wax. Had a box full of old crayons from my kids so that helped to color the wax! Anyways, I sold a few of my candles during my neighborhood rummage, $3 a jar. I had an order for 12 candles, gave $1 off and that went well! Sorry, I couldn’t share a photo, each jar was wrapped with a July 4 ribbon 🙂 looking forward to making more, having too much fun!

I made some of the mosquito traps with the 2 liter coke bottles and caught a lot of flies outside before they had a chance to get in the house. I loved that! Don’t remember all of the instructions but will find them if you want me to. I will try to write them for you.

Citronella and candles combined :)….also a great way to use pretty jars instead of simply displying them for no purpose or having to throw them out!
