if this link does not work...which i suspect it won't! google 'making clementine candles', and you will find a youtube video put together by 'apartment therapy'...they are so easy and fun to make and v natural...the tricky bit is keeping the natural wick from the fruit in place when u peel it...but with a few goes it gets easier.....hope you all try to make one! they are beautiful if you put them on a mirror so u can see the bottom half better

i have decided we will make these every Cmas season...i wonder if mandarines/satsumas/etc will work too...?
