How Do You Get Materials, Supplies And Tools Needed For Candle Making?
Candle making is a fun project for the whole family. Kids enjoy candle making, and there are various molds, colors and scents to make the experience exciting. Your candle-making materials may be purchased online or at your local craft shop. Collect your candle molds. Your project will determine the size, shape and type of molds you need. Make sure you have mold sealer to cover the wick hole in the mold. See Resources below for places to buy candle-making supplies. Choose scents that you would like to use for your candles. Natural scents are the safest to use. Use a liquid dye that is in a small, squeezable bottle. This will allow you to squeeze small drops of dye into your wax so you can achieve your desired depth of color. Choose your wax for candle making. Use paraffin, tallow, bayberry, soy or beeswax. Depending on the type of wax, you may need to add additives to the wax, such as stearic acid to harden the wax if necessary. Other additives may clarify or add sheen to the wax. Have
