How to make a SPIRAL 2 IN 1 CANDLE (Hurricane shell & Container candle) | HowtomakeCandles.info
You've seen it before, popping up in your Facebook feed or in very short videos on UA-cam: the Spiral candle.
It's basically a wax shell with a wick inside which, when lit, burns and melts down the shell in a downwards spiral fashion. The Spiral candle we will make in this project is a 2 in 1 candle: when the top part of the shell has melted away, you're left with a container candle in the middle that you can continue burning.
A very fun project to make but keep in mind that most Spiral candle designs are patented.
This video will soon be available in French.

    WOW!!! I’ve been a candlemaker for almost 5 years, and this video answered questions I’ve had since the very beginning! 🙏🏻 The panty hose is genius and making the holes inside the candle is such a good idea 😅 THANK YOU! Now I’m just curious why you didn’t use a wick tab, I always wonder if they are truly necessary?

    how can i make a candle from scratch that drips like old candles used to? everything they sell now is dripless. apparently they dont sell candles that drip anymore. is there a specific wax that needs to be used? can i make a candle that drips using soy wax? also, how to choose the proper soy wax? i hope someone replies 🤞🏿🤞🏿🤞🏿 thank you!

    • @amandag5072
      @amandag5072 10 місяців тому

      lol, There's no such thing as a dripless candle. It's just a gimmick, much like "natural".

    • @keenah1111
      @keenah1111 10 місяців тому

      @@amandag5072 nonsense. i got a bunch of candles that demonstrate over and over they dont drip. the liquid stays inside and doesnt go over and drip along the sides. if you dont have a helpful answer is pointless and dumb to reply with nonsense
