DIY Orange Peel Candle

Wow. Found this incredible idea at Scraphacker and absolutely had to share. When I first saw it, I thought somebody had used a zinc-core wick and poured wax into an orange peel. I was wrong! The "candle" is simply olive oil, and the wick is part of the orange peel itself!

The trick is to preserve the string of orange peel when you remove the orange. Scrape the orange out with a spoon, but be careful not to damage the "tail." Enjoy the aroma!
