Kris10Tackles Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I ran across this. Not sure how it found me but it did and made me go 🤔. I know I’m new to candle making but, is this a good idea? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallTayl Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Interesting. the solvents will evaporate out as the nail polish dries, so hopefully no longer a flammability hazard from that sense. I’ve never tried to set fire to dry polish. Does it burn? Less worrisome than dried stuff mod podged on. with the glass shortage I can see loads of new chandlers trying inventive stuff like this for decor to some degree.

My intelligence is really shining through 🤦🏻♀️😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
