This is how I built my Christmas tree drenched entirely in melted wax. Hi. My name is Marco, and every year I love to reimagine what the Christmas tree could best. And this year is no different. I've been so inspired by iron worse and romantic design that I had an idea. What if I make a tree lit entirely of real candles and make it look like it's covered in melted wax? So I designed a metal base with scrolls, curves, and even tree roots. I found a welder here in LA that said he thought he could build this, so I drove to his shop and we got started building the tree. He said this was definitely one of the most intricate jobs he's worked on, but after working through it, he was able to make my full design even down to the roots. From there, I took the tree home and built it up for the first time. It was even bigger than I expected, and the rank iron fit perfectly in my apartment. For the candles and melted wax, I actually yes bleached amaranthus to get this dramatic melted wax look. I had to buy so much amaranthus, and this part definitely took the longest. I stayed up all night to complete this. I added different candle sizes while making sure that none of them overlap and even added some wax drippings to the middle of the tree to make it more realistic. From there, I draped some fabric to showcase the finished tree and then lit each candle one by one to reveal the candlelight tree. I put so much thought and love into building this year's tree, and I can truly say that I'm in love with the result. I love sharing this process with you guys, and all your support means the world.
