Craft: Making Candles


For this Christmas, I made a few of my friends candles.
The full method can be read here on Bonzai Aphrodite, so I'll be brief.
You'll need microwaveable wax, a crock pot, candle holders (glasses, teacups, mugs, etc.), wicks, and, if you want, colouring and scent.


I bought the wax at a generic craft store, same with the wicks and scent (I used a raspberry vanilla liquid one), and the cups all cost about five dollars. I love Goodwill. :)

This was taken when I turned off the crock pot and placed the wicks in.


And they're done!

I'll definitely be making more.
