Candles and wax are fascinating. Wax can be solid, liquid but the moment in between is the best. When it’s flexible and bendable. We will focus on bending candles in a variety of shapes and bends. By using hot water we can deform the candles in multiple ways to create your own design. The flexibility of wax is a true material experiment that combines, form function and fun. You can use a variety of colors and simple household tools to create a family of candle characters.
