Making a Cooking Oil Candle

Total Time: 5 minutes

Yield: 1

Supplies:

• 1/3 cup cooking oil/used oil
• 3 Tbsp salt
• 1 cotton ball
• 2 in stick
• match/lighter
• 1 glass or jar

Steps:

1. Put 3 tablespoons of salt inside the glass. Press it to level the salt into place.


2. Pour the cooking oil into the glass of salt.


3. Loop the cotton around a piece of stick.


4. Insert the stick in the middle of the glass, this will serve as the candle wick. The salt will stabilize the stick into position.

5. Light it up with a match stick or a lighter.

6. Now you have a candle made from items found in the kitchen. It will last longer than a candle and is much safer to use.
