Ollie helped me make my Mom's Christmas present, which is a jar of bottle cap candles! I had them Pinned on a secret board as a Christmas idea for her last year, but didn't get around to it, so we tried it this year.

Melting wax in a cleaned-out peaches can in a pan of water,
with our bottle caps (with wicks glued in) waiting in the background. |
 |
| Filling the bottle caps (carefully!) with hot candle wax (and spilling a lot of it, as you can see). |
 |
| Pretty jar full of bottle cap candles in three different scents! |
Now the apartment smells like cranberry martini, vanilla cookie, and rainy spring day all at the same time... which is a little odd, but not unpleasant.
