Candle decoration in a seashell

The first idea for the maritime theme is closely related to the romance of the Mediterranean. Buy several candles in different colors and a pack of medium-sized shells. Melt the candles in a water bath and pour the wax into the shells. The result is colored candles for beautiful table decorations. If you want to set the tone, you can place the shell candle in a small aquarium and fill it halfway with sand.
