How to Make a Simple Scented Oil Burner

Ever want a custom made scented oil burner with your own unique flare? Here's how to make one!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• a ceramic coffee mug of your choice
• a tin mini pie pan
• scented oil of your choice
• tealight candles
• a power drill with ceramic bit

1. First, gather all of your materials, you can also add some extra things, which I will point out later.
   
   Take your coffee mug, this is the hard part, and drill 3 holes on each side halfway up the mug. This will allow for air to reach the flame of the candle and keep it from going out. The holes should be about the size of a dime. Now set your mug aside and move to step two.

2. Take your candle, light it, and place it inside the mug. Now get your tin mini pie pan and it should fit just inside the top of the mug. You can trim the edge with some ribbon and hotglue if you want a more finished look.

3. Pour about 20 to 30 drops of your favorite scented oil into the tin mini pie pan and you're done! Change the candle and oil as needed.

Tips & Warnings

• Try decorating your mug with rinestones, foil ribbons and glitter paint for a personalized piece of art.
• Use only a ceramic bit on your drill, otherwise the mug will shatter and cause injury
