How to make acorn cap candles – whimsical autumn craft

DIY floating acorn cap beeswax candles tutorial for autumn decorating

Bring a touch of woodland magic into your home with these DIY floating acorn cap beeswax candles from Woodlark Blog. This project is as creative as it is simple. You’ll be using only natural materials like foraged acorn caps, pure beeswax, and cotton wick. Each little candle burns for about 10–15 minutes, creating a cozy glow that’s perfect for autumn evenings. For safety, they must be placed in a bowl of water, where they’ll gently float and flicker.

The effect is whimsical, almost enchanting – like tiny lanterns drifting in a woodland pond! Choose sturdy acorn caps with some depth, fill them with wax, trim the wick, and you’re ready to light your own miniature autumn candles. They’re a fun way to celebrate the season, make a gorgeous table centerpiece, and give you a few moments of blissful coziness!
