Candles are always good to have on hand in case the power goes out, or in case the SHTF. Not if, but when we have an economic collapse, the infrastructure would collapse as well, causing a shortage of power, fuel, food, water and other essentials. Weve featured a number of DIY lamps for those emergency situations, but its hard to get any simpler than this. Just pull out a tub of Crisco shortening, put a piece of string in the middle, and light it up. Not only will it burn, itll last for 45 days—enough to get you through a zombie apocalypse or two. Though eHow recommends using a candle wick, you can use regular old string, too—some people even say a rolled up piece of paper makes a good wick. For the full step-by-step, check out snapguides instructions, How to Make a 45 Day Emergency Candle Out of Crisco, here: bit.ly/178JLFp
