SCENTED OIL LAMPS

Materials Needed:

• Bottles ( 6" or taller with 1" or smaller opening )
• Dried flowers, herbs
• Lamp oil
• Fiberglass wick
• Nonflammable scent

 
 

Step-by-step Instructions

1. Fill the bottle with dried flowers or herbs.
2. Fill bottle with the lamp oil using a funnel. The oil will preserve the dried plants.
3. Place the wick into the bottle. The first time you light the lamp, wait 5 minutes so the oil can soak into the wick.
4. Place a few drops of the scent into the bowl of the wick, then light the wick.
5. Decorate the outside of the bottle with gold string,ribbon or ornaments.

NOTE: You can purchase the bottles at your local craft store or you can recycle ones from home
              Make sure that the flowers are completely dry, if there is any residual moisture the oil will fog.

Scented oil lamps are the hottest thing going , and they make a great gift for any holiday or everyday uses.

Happy Crafting Everyone!
