First you will need to spray paint your shells. Make sure to choose shells that have a bit of a rounded shape. This will come in handy when you are adding wax later!
Next you will need to remove the wicks from tea light candles. Hold the candle at an angle and gently push the wick through.
Create a double boiler by placing an empty can inside a small pot filled with water. Place the tea lights inside the can. Boil for 2-3 minutes or until the tea lights are fully melted.
Pour the hot wax into your shells and leave to sit for about thirty minutes. Once the wax has dried your candles are ready to use! Place these shell candles on your reception table or in clear gift boxes to use as favors at your wedding.
