Candle making is a fun hobby for everyone to enjoy. Candles can be made from any basic ingredients such as soy wax, fragrance oils or essential oils, and even fruit puree. The main ingredients are usually soy or oil wax, fragrances, colorants and sometimes even fruit puree. There are also some that are very basic, but are made out of sugar, and there are candles that are even made out of soy milk.
The basic steps in candle making is fairly simple. You first need to melt down the wax and mix it with your preferred base. You can use a mixture of sugar and water, or you can also use honey if you are making a mocha type candle.
You then need to add your scents and colorants. Next you will want to add a filler which can either be a taper, a cone or a spatter, or you can just add more melted wax. When you are done adding filler, add a drop or two of the scent or colorant into the center of the candle, and then add the filler again. If you are using the colored coloring, put it on with the tip of a tea ball. This will make the coloring last longer and give you a better looking candle.
Use clean rags or a cotton towel to cover the inside of your candle and allow it to dry completely. Once it has dried thoroughly, you can add your decorations and leave it to harden. If you are making a mocha type candle you can add decorative flowers or ribbons to your candle or a special image. If you like a more formal look, you can tie the wick and add a bow to it.
Decorative candles have always been very popular. Candles are a good way to change the atmosphere and give you a more elegant look during the holidays. Some people have even made candles to give as gifts to their relatives on birthdays and anniversaries.
