I save the dryer lint, put it in cardboard egg cartons and drizzle with melted candle remnents and/or crayons. Make a bunch at once and carry them for campfires. Just be very careful when melting the waxy stuff and pouring it. Best to do it outside on the grill. This is how I make firestarters, too. I use an electric candle warmer to melt my candle wax (use it after it loses all fragrance). And, free is definitely a great price!! lol Vickie The egg carton trick is actually a quite old Boy Scout trick, my father did this 30 years ago, but he mixed in sawdust into the melted wax.356Views0likes0Comments
