Ingredients:
– 1lb of beeswax
– 2oz of soy wax
– 1/2 teaspoon of fragrance oil
Instructions:
1. Melt the beeswax in a double boiler or in a microwave-safe container.
2. Add the soy wax to the melted beeswax and stir until it is melted.
3. Add the fragrance oil and stir until it is well-combined.
4. Pour the wax mixture into desired containers and allow it to cool.
This is a great recipe for making candles because it combines the benefits of both beeswax and soy wax. Beeswax is a natural wax that is made by bees and has a high melting point, which makes it a good choice for candles that need to burn for a long time. Soy wax is a plant-based wax that has a lower melting point, which makes it a good choice for candles that need to be burned for a shorter time. The fragrance oil can be added to give the candles a nice scent.
Making Candle Wax To Use At A Later Time
Making your own candle wax is a great way to ensure you always have some on hand, and it’s also a fun project to do with friends or family. In order to make your own candle wax, you will need:
-Beeswax
-Coconut oil
-Essential oils (optional)
To make the wax, simply combine 2 cups of beeswax with 1 cup of coconut oil in a saucepan over low heat. Stir until the wax and oil are completely combined. If you would like to add essential oils, do so at this time.
Once the wax is melted, remove it from the heat and pour it into a container. Allow the wax to cool completely before using.
This wax can be used to make candles of any size. Simply melt the wax and pour it into a mold, then allow it to cool completely.
Beeswax Sheets Candle Making
Beeswax sheets are used to make candles. They are made by pressing beeswax pellets into a thin sheet. The sheets can be used to make molded candles or to make a candle with a wick.
To make a candle with a wick, cut a piece of wick that is twice as long as the candle is tall. Soak the wick in a jar of hot wax. When the wick is saturated, remove it from the wax and let it cool. Then, cut the wick to the desired length.
To make a molded candle, cut a piece of wax that is the same size as the mold. Melt the wax in a double boiler. Pour the wax into the mold and let it cool.
Beeswax sheets can also be used to make candles with a pattern. To do this, cut a piece of wax that is the same size as the mold. Melt the wax in a double boiler. Pour the wax into the mold. When the wax has cooled, place a beeswax sheet on top of the wax. Use a hot iron to press the beeswax sheet onto the wax. Let the wax cool.

Candles were originally made by the ancient Egyptians by dipping a wick into melted tallow or beeswax. Tallow is a rendered form of beef or mutton fat, while beeswax is a natural wax produced by honey bees.
Today, there are many different types of candles, each with their own unique properties and benefits. For example, soy candles are made from 100% soy wax, which is a renewable resource. They burn cleaner and longer than other types of candles, and they also produce less soot.

Candle Making Wax Ratios
There are a few things you need to know about ratios when making candles. The first is that there is a difference between the weight of the wax and the volume of the wax. So, if you have a block of wax that weighs 2 pounds, the volume of that wax is not 2 cups. The volume of the wax is going to be more like 1.3 cups. This is important to remember when you are calculating your ratios.
The other thing to remember is that the different types of waxes have different densities. So, if you are using a harder wax, you will need more of it to get the same volume as a softer wax.
Now that you know that, let’s talk about ratios. The most common ratio for making a candle is 1:1. This means that for every pound of wax, you will use 1 pound of fragrance oil. This is a good starting point, but you may need to adjust it depending on the type of wax you are using and the fragrance oil you are using.
If you are using a softer wax, you may need to use a higher ratio of fragrance oil to wax. For example, if you are using a ratio of 2:1 for a harder wax, you may need to use a ratio of 3:1 or even 4:1 for a softer wax.
If you are using a fragrance oil that is very strong, you may need to use a higher ratio of wax to fragrance oil. For example, if you are using a ratio of 1:1, you may need to use a ratio of 2:1 or even 3:1.
If you are using a fragrance oil that is very weak, you may need to use a lower ratio of wax to fragrance oil. For example, if you are using a ratio of 1:10, you may need to use a ratio of 1:5 or even 1:2.
The important thing to remember is that you should always start with a ratio of 1:1 and then adjust it depending on the type of wax you are using and the fragrance oil you are using.
