Hello Internet, April here,
This week I'm going to be showing you how to jazz up your Halloween displays with super cute, munchkin pumpkin candles!
(mouth full)
After pottering about many, many, supermarkets in my local area, hunting high and low for the perfect pumpkin, i finally found these babies,
Munchkin Pumpkins! Look how adorable!
These little cuties were bought from Waitrose £1 each!
So, after my last candle escapade -Here- i had loads of wax bars left, begging to be used!
and after finding an awesome pin on Pinterest,which for the life of me, i cannot re find, to link,-sorry, i felt totally inspired to create something similar. This is a really unique and simple yet effective decoration for all your halloweeny needs!

This DIY has a make time of half an hour;
- Melt wax via a double boiler,
- Whilst the wax is melting, hollow out your pumpkins,
- Use some sort of Vaseline or petroleum jelly to layer the entire inside of the pumpkin. This aids in keeping the pumpkin fresher for longer,
- Dunk the metal end of the wick in to the melted wax pan then press till set in the bottom of the pumpkin,
- Using a jug, pore in the melted wax till full,
- As wax starts to set, tape the wick in place,
- Place pumpkin in fridge till fully set
And that's munchkin pumpkin candles sorted!
I hope you love this DIY as much as i do, and i cannot even describe the beautiful mixture of vanilla wax with a hint of pumpkin, its delicious!
