Mini Bonfires

Here is something easy and fun to make for any pyromaniacs who might live in your home.

 First you need some crazy participants.

And then you need tuna cans (one per bonfire) and then strips of cardboard.  Roll the cardboard up and stuff them into the tuna cans in a spiral so that you can see the currogated parts.  This makes a honey-comb look from the top.

Melt wax candles on the stove top.  I used an old vegetable can to melt the candles because I didn't want to mess up a sauce pan.  That way I could just throw out the can when I was done.  When the wax is melted, pour it over the cardboard on the inside of the tuna cans to coat the cardboard.

When the wax cools and hardens, you have what acts like a giant candle wick in a can!  You can take your tuna can anywhere and have a ready-made mini bonfire!

We roasted marshmallows with ours.

And told ghost stories.

And had alot of fun!
