Female gnat on sarracenia pitcher

 


Garden snail shell candle

 


 

What you need :

  • empty garden snail shell. I found alot of empty shells. I wonder if they go to die there or someone dump them.

  • threads from a lace

  • used sunflower oil.

  • aluminum foil used in tealight candles.

The used sunflower oil will burn for about 45 minutes. For a candle wick i used only the inner threads that was inside a lace !

You can now use it for sterilize a tool with the candle heat.

 

Attention :

If you use just the lace without the inner threads, a thin black smoke begun to rise. That develop soot and will land somewhere where you live.

Watch out for spillage, don't leave any fires unattended and put the shell on a dish.

You can hold it with your fingers, but it will get hot on some places near the the shell margin.
