My husband found this idea of making your own fire starters, and we love them. They create a slow, intense burn that helps light the rest of your stuff on fire. And they are super easy to make with things you can save from around your house!
Supplies:
Old wax
Paper egg carton
Dryer lint
Instructions:
- Fill all the holes with old dryer lint.
- Optional- my husband has put used matches down in some to use as a "wick"
- Melt down wax. We use old candles and put the jars on the stove in a pot of water.
- Pour the wax over the dryer lint until the lint is pretty saturated. Not really a right or wrong amount here.
- Tear apart the egg carton and you are done!
- Place where you would like to start a fire and light. Use responsibly :)
I have heard that these are good for use in a charcoal grill. You don't get the taste of lighter fluid that way.
