Weekend DIY: Simple Twisted Candle Hack!

Sculptural candles in sweet pastels: one of the biggest micro trends to hit Scandinavia right now. And guess what? They’re actually not that tricky to make! Just to be clear I’m not talking making the entire candle from scratch – I know we’re all spending copious amounts of time at home right now, but that could be a push (although I’d love to see the results if you do!). I’m talking giving ready made candles a funky twist that will make our Danish friends proud! 

Curious to try it this weekend? This film by the swedish queen of DIY Malin Poppy Darcy Mörner tells you everything you need to know! Can’t access Instagram? There’s another great tutorial on Youtube with more detailed instructions. 

No time for DIY / arts and crafts? I hear you! Here are some of my favourite sculptural candles right now – the only problem is, they’re way to pretty to go up in smoke!

Candle sculptures that will put a smile on your face – no holder required! He has also made some fabulous pillar ones in collaboration with Hay. 

Weekend DIY: Simple Twisted Candle Hack!
This Danish store sells pastel, sugar-coated-style candles that look good enough to eat (although I probably wouldn’t!). 

Weekend DIY: Simple Twisted Candle Hack!
Funky blob-shaped ‘Goobers’ (guys) that add a little pastel-shaped fun to the home. 
What do you reckon? Are you willing to give the twisting a go? Or perhaps another candle caught your eye? Either way, if this trend is anything to go by, it’s totally time to up the candle game! 
Have a wonderful weekend friends!
