Ingredients
10ounces Beeswax or Soy Wax
Dried Flowers
Dried Herbs
Sticks, Pinecones, or Pine Needles
Wicks
Papper liners
Muffin Tins or Silicon Muff Tins
Instructions
Melt the beeswax in a double boiler or microwave safe bowl in the microwave.
While the wax melts, fill the muffin tins with the botanicals, herbs, sticks and pinecones.
Pour the melted wax into each tin.
Add a cotton wick to each tin and let the wax cool and solidify.
Once cooled and solidify, you can remove the fire starters from the tin.
How To Use: Place a fire starter or kindling at the base of your firewood. Light the cotton wick or an exposed piece of wax. The fire starter will burn long enough to ignite the surrounding materials.
