What you need:

eggshells
gravel or sand

wicks

Instructions:

Carefully crack open eggshells (one inch from narrow end) and set
aside yolk and whites for cooking. Rinse and carefully rub away
membrane and let dry in egg carton. Melt wax and carefully pour into
eggshells. Insert wicks. When cooled set the eggshell candles in a
shallow dish that has been filled with gravel or sand. Gently settle
candles into the gravel or sand. Light the candles, dim the lights and
enjoy their luminescense during your Ostara or Equinox ritual.
