For this project I wanted to do something different. I decided to do a turtle tea light. I made this project out of clay. I made the body of the turtle the platform for the candle to sit on. The shell isn't attached. You place the shell over the candle, onto the platform. On the shell I carved out a spiral and raised it so that it's like a spiral sun, then I carved lines out for the rays. The rays are in the shape of a star. I also made a little baby turtle. It's not a tea light holder. It's just a little friend for the big turtle. I carved a sunmoon into the shell. That way the sun and moon are incorporated. I glazed the shell of the big turtle dark green and light green for the body. I did the opposite for the little turtle. I lit a candle and placed it on the platform under the shell. It didn't light up how I thought it would, but I still like how this project turned out. It's different and I think it turned out great.
