Tips and Tricks Section
1. Preparation is key: Properly prepare your work area by setting up all the materials you need to make a candle before starting any of the steps in the process. This will help ensure that the entire candle making process goes quickly and without interruption.
2. Better ingredients = better candles: Always use the highest quality wax, wicks and fragrances available when crafting your candles. Poor quality products can lead to improperly crafted candles that will not last long, flame unevenly or have problems burning properly.
3. Shape it up: Delicately shaping (pouring) candles shortly after wax melts are pulled from their molds can lead to greater accuracy and consistency among multiple candles. Remember, taking pride in each candle will show others how much effort you put into it when they look at it, so give each one special attention.
4. Hot tips for wicks: To keep wicks at the desired length for an even burn throughout the life of your candle, adjust them as needed once each layer of wax cools and no longer poses a danger of burning yourself or becoming otherwise damaged from heat warping or hardening while adjusting it too hot.
5. Finish it off right: Give every candle its own unique touch with special decorations like stickers or chalkboard labels or simply hand lettering above its wick that adds extra character prior to gifting or selling them to customers
Create a Gallery
Having a gallery section dedicated to showcasing finished projects from the candle making class would be an excellent addition to the class. Not only would it help to spur on creativity and motivation amongst students, but it could also provide inspiration to other aspiring candle makers. The gallery section could include photos of each student’s project along with an explanation of the materials used, technique demonstrated, and time needed to complete the project. This could serve as a reminder of what was learned in each class session and provide a step-by-step guide for future novice candle makers. Additionally, the gallery section could contain descriptions of each item so that visitors can learn more about the different candle creations made by classmates. Assembling this gallery could potentially help recruit new students and generate interest in taking a candle making class at Annapolis as well!
