Your home will always smell nice if you light these scented candles: you don't need paraffin to make them

A pleasant smell is an integral part of any cozy apartment that you want to return to.

Unfortunately, you can't count on regular air fresheners for this purpose because of their chemical smell.

Instead, we suggest you make beautiful, and most importantly, fragrant candles with your own hands.

To do this, you will need a regular orange, which needs to be cut into two halves.

Remove the pulp from them, leaving only the white stem, which will serve as the wick for the future candle.

Now place the peel firmly and fill it with vegetable oil - olive or sunflower - so that the same wick from the orange protrudes slightly above the surface of the liquid.

All that's left for you to do is light the candle and enjoy the subtle citrus aroma.

By the way, you can make the smell even more piquant by adding a few cloves or ground cinnamon to the oil.
