How To Make Candle Pie Tarts

If you’re a candle enthusiast looking for a fun and creative project, candle pie tarts may be just the thing for you. This candle-making tutorial will take you through the process of making candle pie tarts from scratch, including the base and frosting. With step-by-step instructions and a helpful video guide, even beginners can create beautiful and fragrant candles that look like miniature pies.

The first step in making candle pie tarts is creating the candle base. This involves melting and pouring wax, adding color and fragrance, and letting the wax cool and harden. Once the base is complete, you can move on to the fun part – creating the pie crust and frosting. This involves piping wax onto the top of the candle, creating a realistic and delicious-looking crust and frosting that will make your candles stand out.

The great thing about candle pie tarts is that you can customize them to your liking. You can choose your favorite scents, colors, and even shapes to create candles that match your decor or personal style. They also make great gifts for friends and family, or as a unique addition to your candle collection.

The video guide included with this tutorial makes it easy to follow along and ensure your candles turn out just right. Even if you’ve never made candles before, this tutorial will guide you through the process, helping you create a beautiful and functional piece of decor that will fill your home with lovely fragrance.

After talking about the pirate themed chalk obstacle course the other day, I got to thinking about other easy, low prep games and activities you can do with kids outside. A lot of these are ideas I found on Pinterest that don’t link to blogs anymore if they ever did, but often that’s all the detail you need to figure out what’s going on.

First, a couple from blogs that are still alive. If you have a lot of trees in your yard or in your park, you probably also have a lot of sticks, so you can pretty easily do this stick maze activity from Mother Natured. Build the maze yourself or have one child build if for another. Either way it’s lots of fun and you can keep it built to use as a labyrinth or for pretend play.

If it’s hot where you live you might want outdoor activities that involve water like this fill the bucket relay game. The only thing you might not have at home is giant sponges, but this is still pretty low prep, inexpensive and lots of fun if you have two or more kids to play. Check out how to do it from The Resourceful Mama. And check out my post all about ice and water sensory activities for more ideas to beat the heat.

Make some x’s and o’s or use something you already have to be your game pieces (you can also just draw them on paper plates for a super fast version) and make a large tic tac toe board on the sidewalk. The bonus of reusable game pieces is kids can play with the same grid over and over, which is great if you don’t have a ton of space.

I also love the idea of drawing a big bullseye on the sidewalk or driveway and using beanbags or sponges to try to hit the target. If you have hula hoops you can also set them in a grassy area and have kids try to hit them.

Check out more fun outdoor games for kids from The Printable Princess. These are more for big groups of kids, but if you’ve got a classroom full these are good ones to have on hand for getting some energy out.

Do you have favorite outdoor games for kids to play when it’s hot? I’d love to hear about them!
