Make Beer Bottle Shaped Candles!

I was bored the other night and decided to do something "productive".
So I collected all my candles that have burned all their wick up and were no longer of use.
I found enough wax to fill a large pan used for steaming lobsters and such.
After cleaning out the pan and the wax, I then heated the wax with a blow torch.
Once the wax was melted I poured it into a beer bottle I had prepped earlier with a wick.
You want to let the wax cool at it's own pace so don't put it in the fridge or anything.
When I was done, I then smashed the glass off the wax, and look what came out!

Not bad for my first time. I am thinking of making a few more as gifts.
