Ready for an easy beginner's guide to make scented candles with essential oils? Here's everything you need to know about how to make candles from beginning to end.
This is perfect for beginners, friends, groups, and parties. Candle making is relaxing and so much easier than you think with just a bit of simple know how.
If you want to craft along with me, shop the kit I used here: www.popshopamerica.com/shop/c...
Otherwise, use these supplies to make Candles with Essential Oils, Gemstones & Dried Flowers
Candle Vessels
All Natural Soy Wax (Golden 415 Wax is fine, otherwise 464 is good too)
Natural Cotton Wicks
Popsicle Sticks
High Grade Essential Oils (I recommend this over fragrance oils)
Small Gemstones
Dried Flowers (I used jasmine)
Plus you will need a microwave, stovetop, or hot plate to heat your wax.
Once you have your candle making supplies gathered, all other instructions are available in this video and here's the gist.
1. Melt your wax on LOW, never on high.
2. Once your wax is transparent, slowly and gently pour it into the vessel leaving a small amount of room at the top.
3. Place your wick in the center.
4. Once the wax becomes opaque at the bottom, never before, add your essential oils stirring thoroughly and completely.
5. Let the wax continue to cool. Once your wax is buttery on the top and solid throughout add cute decorations like seashells, gemstones, or dried flowers. Add them sparingly for safety.
6. Wait 24 hours to trim the wick or burn the candle.
