Candle Votives Holder Decorative
   
Select the container for the candle holder. If using a flowerpot, seal the hole in the bottom with self-hardening terra-cotta or modeling clay before the wax is poured in.
For a 2-cup container, you will need 7 to 10 drops of essential oil in the fragrance of your choice. Many wicks burn in only one direction, so be sure to position the wick properly or else the candle will just keep going out.
