1. Gather Materials: Beeswax, a ceramic or metal pouring pot or double boiler, a thermometer, wicks and dye chips (optional).
2. Melt the beeswax in either the pour pot or double boiler on medium heat until the temperature reaches 150-165 degrees Fahrenheit.
3. Add dye chips (if desired) to achieve a black hue. Stir together occasionally until wax is completely melted and dyed evenly.
4. Transfer the wax into your candle molds and use a wick holder to secure your wicks in the center of each mold before pouring the wax over them. Allow candles to cool for several hours before popping them out of their molds and trimming excess from the wicks so that they stand upright once lit.
5. Light it up! When ready to enjoy your finished product, light the tip of your wick with a match or lighter and set your Nose Black candle aglow! Enjoy its stunning colour and captivating scent for hours ahead!

Troubleshooting Candle Making Nose Black
Cracking: If your candle nose crack, be sure that your wax is melted at a low temperature. Additionally, make sure the wick size is correct for the container and that you are not overfilling the container with wax.
Sticking: To minimize sticking, make sure to purchase wax specifically designed for candle making. Wax with higher amounts of shrinkage is more likely to stick than traditional paraffin waxes. Use a release spray or a melted stearic acid/paraffin blend when pouring.
Sculpting issues: Dipping a double-boiler in cold water will help keep harden surfaces soft enough for sculpting. Alternatively, try using beeswax which is softer than paraffin and allows more malleability. Lastly, you can also use silicone molds to replicate the exact shape you need without having to carve it from scratch.
