So, say you bought a bag of lemons at your local big box bulk retailer and you're just not going through them as fast as you'd hoped. Don't fret! Instead use them as your next glowing centerpiece. It not only looks lovely, but it smells so much better than anything from the famous non-confederate candle company!
This idea (from Martha Stewart, naturally) is simple: add wax and lemon oil with a wick and you're good to go. Although it does take a little prep work, they're well worth it when you're looking to add something unique to your outdoor dining table.

"The famous non-confederate candle company" *spittake lolz*
I am admittedly super freakin' lazy but "..add wax and lemon oil and a wick" sounds hard. It sounds like a trip to a special candle making store or something? You'd have to make a shit load of lemon candles before these paid for themselves, too. How about I just stick a tea light candle in a lemon hull and call it a centerpiece. ha
Love it!
I agree with Clode, I love the idea of a lemony candle (before the lemon turns golf-ball hard) but I was thinking this would be super-easy; tracking down wax and wicks sounds like more effort than it's worth.
