Candle Making

Candle once were a necessity to daily life and knowing how to make long burning, safe candles was a well. These days the craft is more about ambiance than necessity, but if you're anything like me, still a wonderful party of your day to day.

Our response sheets had a huge interest in candles, so I figured that's where we should start. I'm going to start gathering supplies this week so I'm all prepared, but with that I will need everyone's help. I'm going to try to do this first one without a class fee it anything and see if we can pull it off.

Items I will be gathering include:

Wide mouth jars or old candle jars ( not too big 😉)

Various waxes ( ie soy, paraffin, beeswax, etc)

Wicks - preferably with the tab bottoms

Essential oils for scents

Stearic acid, vybar, and microcrystalline 180

Some cute labels to write our scents on them

If anyone thinks if anything else is had any questions, don't hesitate to reach out.
