Materials Needed:

Glue a piece of tin foil to the bottom of the pumpkin.
Attach the wick to the bottom of the pumpkin.
Roll the top of the wick around a pencil or skewer to hold it upright.
Melt the wax – you can use a double boiler, or to make it easier, we just used a pyrex glass and a microwave!
Pour the wax into the candles.
Crush up your cinnamon sticks and add them to the wax for a wonderful cinnamon smell! (For a stronger smell, you can also add cinnamon oil.)
Let the candles sit for a couple of hours to allow the wax to harden.
