I'll be showing you how to make a tray that a maid or a waitress might carry (as seen above) if you decide to cosplay a maid or a waitress.
To start this project off you will need the following items: A glass or plastic cup, a snack box (I used a pocky box), a metal tray, a hot glue gun, hot glue gun sticks, a plastic knife, a lighter, a paper towel, Brown candles (I used 4), and White candles (I used 4).
What to do with your snack box.
Step 1:
Make sure your snack box is empty. Then hot glue any openings shut. Then just leave it sit until your done with your coffee candle.How to make a coffee candle.
Step 1:
Place a brown candle in your cup and light it.
When the candle is almost dead blow it out and put it under a fan to cool.Step 2:
Make sure you didn't leave the candle under the fan for too long. You don't want it to be hot but you need it to still be warm.
< It looks like this when it has cooled down. Notice the candle is cool but the wax at the bottom of the cup is still hot.
Now take your candle out of the cup and turn it upside down to remove the wick.
Then mold the candle in your hands. Try to make it as flat as possible. (This is why the candle needs to be warm- so it will mold.)Then pack the wax into your cup.
Continue Steps 1 and 2 as many times as needed with your brown candle.
Then when your ready for your white candle, you do the same. (Do steps 1 and 2 as many times as needed with your white candle as well.)
<Your candle should come out looking something like this.
Step 3:
Use your plastic knife to go along the top edges of your candle. Try to make the edging all look even. Then take your paper towel and wipe off the candle wax that got on the inside and outside of your cup.
Lastly, hot glue your snack box and coffee down to your tray and your done.
