    You shouldn't be putting candles in the microwave! Metal components could be dangerous !!!

      Just wonderful, I've been looking for "troubleshooting candle making" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Cenadoelyn Candle Contemplation - (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my brother in law got excellent success with it.

    I like how you reused the wick holder. 3:18 you poured the wax very HOT (still see thru) !!! Indentation on the top is caused by pouring the wax that was still too HOT. If you wait a few minutes to pour & mix the hot wax while waiting till it is cooler, not a clear liquid anymore, then pour it. It will solidify super flat on top!

    ok no, the wick does not absorb any of the wax. It hollows in the middle because the wax was too hot when you poured it in. wait for the wax to cool a bit first, then pour it in :)
    also dont put metal in the microwave! (tin foil is also metal for anyone who didnt realise)

    • @starrama7711
      @starrama7711 5 років тому

      @Prairiedoggen yeah don't do it lol.. I stuck m jars with wax in a fry pan with water and I used a wick thread and dipped it into the tallest one.. then I cut it to fit and inserted it in each one while it was malleable enough. Pretty easy :) Sometimes I just stick another candle on top of the old wax and sometimes it just keeps burning and burning for a couple of days.. Be careful that the jar is tough enough because some of my salsa jars crack and catch on fire in the end lol

    • @starrama7711
      @starrama7711 5 років тому

    The glue you using to stick the wax base is inflatable , so that is not a good idea all you had to do was take a lighted candle and drop a few melted drops into the base of the jar and hold the wax base onto it and it will stick in less than minute and also you cannot put the metal wax base in the microwave again that is a NO!! NO!!.

  • @KitsuneNarutoKun
    @KitsuneNarutoKun 6 років тому

    Oh hun, you shouldn't directly heat wax on the stove that's dangerous. Wax is supposed to be melted in a double boiler. You're also pouring the wax when it's too hot which is partly why you're getting that dip around the wick. And the bubbles in the other one are because you're pouring too fast. Please, get some more advice yourself before posting DIY videos, you could hurt someone.

  • @NiKKey411

    the wick holder is made of metal so next time put on the stove in a pan or pot of boiling water.
