Oscar's done his 'Would you rather...?' and created wax discs from used candles. Very creative Oscar!



First you collect wax from a candle there is a photo of what type of wax then get a jar a boil water in the kettle or on a stove .After the water has boiled put the wax in the jar and pour the water in as well make sure you put the jar on a wood chopping board then pour the water when it is still on the wood then leave it .When it is cold water push one side of the wax and it should come out .If it does not work see if the jar has a tip on the inside if it does that would probably be it or it could be because it might have to much wax .





The other thing you could do is if  the candle is on a place mat and wax drips down wait till it sets then with a knife scrape some of because you could use some bits for the disc .With bits that you can't scrape off get a iron and news paper and rest the place mat on the ground outside heat the iron when it is heated put the news paper on top of the place mat and start going over the news paper with the iron .Soon there will be a black wet puddle swap the news paper pieces till the wax on the place mat is gone .It might leave a mark
