Candle Making

Candles were made in two colours - the moulds were prepared with the wicks before being half filled with the first colour of liquid wax . The second colour of liquid wax was added when the first was set. When the wax had hardened, the candles were removed from their moulds and polished with a soft cloth.

The children also made candle holders for emergency night lights
