was a tree next to our house just reaching the roofgutter. Last year, about ten
years later, it was almost 32 feet (10 metres) above that gutter and way above
our roof. Although we made a lot of Christmas bouquets of it, the tree took
away too much sunlight and since our garden isn’t that big we decided to chop
it down. </span><o:p></o:p><br />

A couple a weeks ago my dad gave me the cutest high heeled shoe...made of paper.<br />
He told me he'd made a few of these, filled them with some chocolate bonbons, put it on the chocolate box, wrapped it with transparant foil and gave it away as a present. My dad is really the (paper)craftsman in our family !<br />

And because he knows I also like to make quick and easy gifts he made me a handdrawn template. My husband, who has a lot more patience than I do to figure out drawing programs, finetuned it in Illustrator. It was the first template he ever draw and I think he really did a great job ! So it is a family project after all !</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Which man didn't collect branches when he was a kid. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Even our own son couldn't decide which were his 110 most favourites when we asked him to bring some back to the woods. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">He must have been about six years old when he had a crush on a cute girl in his class. For her he would give up at least one and together we made this great candle. On Valentine's day, even before breakfast, he climbed on his little bike and brought her his first DIY candle. Eversince we made several of these torches because it's a really cool thing to do; melting candle leftovers on a stove, using sticks and making things for your loved ones you can set on fire.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So if you have a son who's in love or a daughter who loves hearts or you just want to get rid of some branches you can make this cool torch. And if not... drag your children, friend or husband ( like I did ) outside for a walk in search of some wood.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">As soon as the wax is melted you can fill the heart molds. You can also make one at the time if you only have one mold. Be careful the wax can be very hot ! </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I usually wait until the wax stold a bit, so it doesn't drop over the kitchen sink. For the same reason I also put the glass tray, my working space, into the freezer before I use it . </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">If you cover the tray with wax paper you can easily remove the candles. When the heartshapes are filled wait a while and then push them gently out of the mold. At that time they still have to be a bit soft because you'll have to carve a line for the fuse and make some space for the branch. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Put the fuse and branch into place. Then spread some melted candle grease on one of the hearts and put the other heart on top. Finally put a little bit of weight on the two hearts so they can melt together. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">On the 2nd picture above you can see candle wax drops. I've used them before to melt the two hearts together, but this time I tried the melted wax which was already in the jar, and it works out a lot better ! </span></div>
