How to Make an Upcycled Recycled Herbal Incense Oil Warmer
Learn to make an incense warmer out of all upcycled/recycled materials. Fun and Easy!
Gather Materials and Tools
Materials:
Empty can
Used up tea candle or foil
Loose or oil incense
Painters tape
Tools:
Sharp knife
Sharp scissors
Stirring tool
Hammer
Nail
Cut Can in Half
You are using the bottom half. Cutting the can too close to the bottom will result in smothering the candle \.
Trim Edge
Use sharp scissors to trim edge of can.
Clean and Dry
Be careful to not cut yourself in this step! You need to wash and dry the can. Hot water is fine, no soap needed.
Add Painters Tape to Sharp Edge
Add painters tape to sharp edge leaving 1/2 the width exposed.
Tuck the Tape
Fold the tape inward to the inside. This protects you from a sharp edge.
Add Air Holes
Add 3-4 triangular shaped holes with sharp knife.
Poke Holes
Use hammer and nail to make hole(s) in bowl of can. 1 is fine, but extra holes allow extra heat to the incense.
Light Candle
Place Can Over Candle
Add Bowl to Top
Add bowl of incense to top. Use either foil or used up tea candle to make external bowl for incense. Within 3-5 minutes the incense will be potent. Great for indoors or outdoors.
