Cork Lid Candle Making
Candle making is a fun and easy hobby that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. In this tutorial, we will be making candles using cork lids. This is a great project for beginners, as it does not require any special equipment or ingredients.
To make a cork lid candle, you will need:
-A cork lid
-A candle wick
-Paraffin wax
-A heat source
-A container
First, you will need to cut the wick to the desired length. The wick should be about 2 inches longer than the height of the cork lid.
Next, you will need to melt the wax. You can do this using a microwave or a stovetop. If using a microwave, melt the wax in a microwave-safe container. If using a stovetop, place the wax in a pot and heat over low heat.
Once the wax is melted, carefully pour it into the cork lid. Be sure to avoid getting wax on the wick.
Then, insert the wick into the wax and hold it in place until the wax hardens.
Finally, place the cork lid in a safe place and allow the candle to cool completely.
That’s it! You have now made a cork lid candle.

Hey everyone,
I hope you all are well. I wanted to let you all know that I am no longer making candles. It’s been a great run, but I’m moving on to other things.
Candles were always a passion of mine, but it’s just not feasible to continue making them anymore. The market is just too saturated, and it’s getting harder and harder to make a profit.
I want to thank all of you for your support over the years. It’s been great getting to know all of you, and I hope you’ll continue to support me in my future endeavors.
Thanks again,
