To give MIL a big waxy cock for Christmas?

My family don’t have a lot of money and I’m quite crafty so I do home made presents a lot of the time. This year I thought it would be a nice idea to make a little hamper of home-made luxuries like truffles, soaps and bath bombs, and scented candles.

We all love Game of Thrones, so I thought it would be cool to make white candles with a blood red centre, and then carve it to look like one of the weirwood trees. So I made a lot of red, cinnamon scented wax and poured it into Molds made out of bog roll tubes.

The results were a bit lumpen, but not awful, but then I started coating the red wax with the white and now they look like a load of big pink veiny willies. Do you think I can salvage them? Or should I just give as is and pretend they’re meant to be erotic candles? They smell really nice but look horrible.

😂😂 they do look a bit strange but I'm sure she'd appreciate the trouble you've gone to!

MASSIVE kudos for making presents when you can't afford to buy any, but they look more like misshapen turds than cocks so give to your MIL by all means! X

I would not say a word. Then if she says they look like a cock act all innocent and tell her she has a filthy mind

Could you start again with better moulds? Something like ice lolly moulds in two different sizes to get a nicer finish before you start carving..?

The photos a bit dark. Can they be salvaged with a cutout of a dire wolf head and a “winter is coming” sign?

Reminds me of the episode in Father Ted where they made candles out of Father Jack's ear wax.

Tell her they're authentic, traditional fragrance candles from [insert name of obscure location/island/country] and cost a bomb. Tell her David Attenborough's bathroom is full of them. Job done.

Can you carve them a bit?

Could you melt them into nice kilner jars and tie a festive ribbon around the top?

And just light them while watching fame of thrones?

Either that or same the dc made them (if you have any) then she won't be able to say anything bad and will have to keep a straight face!, Grin

I was thinking jars will have to be employed, Needcoffee, possibly very dark ones.
