craftgrrl | since its getting colder outside

well this is my first post in here. and i figured that this is a craft i came up with last night and thouht i would share it with the rest of you. well theres two actually lol. the first one is home made peppermint mocha:

make your normal black coffee with how many scoops you use- i usually use two of decafe folgers.
pour yourself a cup of coffee, then put how many scoops of either packaged hot chocolate or i used nestly quick and i put four scoops in. and then you can either use peppermint exctract or what i use is a peppermint stick. i have no idea where my mom bought the peppermint sticks but oh i love them. i use the cans also when the sticks are gone. she said wal mart or some where.

second craft:

candle made from candle wax and yarn.

ok so tonight i was doing homework and messing around with candles and i had this metal tin that one candle was in and all the wax was gone. so i just pourd wax from the other candles in there and then doubled up some yarn and let it sit so the wax can harden. now i have not tried this yet so i dont know how well it will work but i just thought that i would throw a project out there to you guys.
