I just made 24 candles. I colored them. I started blending my own wax and it gives me nice tops and no frosting. It has taken me around two years to discover which tins, glass, wicks and wax. It is a science. There are times when I make them exactly the same every time and they look different. Soap is definitely easier for me than candles.
You're so right, there is definitely a science to candle making❣️
I never made candles. This a great idea Ellen. Thank you so much for the great video.
Thanks for watching!🕯️
Love a tin candle I think they look so much better than glass and they have an old fashion look to them. I do love a White candle they look very classy. Thanks for sharing xx
Thanks🥰
Thank you. I can't wait to do it for the 1st time.
Ellen oh no you have gotten me interested in making some candles now even if just for me to use. You made it look doable. But how would hubby react not more supplies!!! Thanks Ellen
🤣 Yes, more supplies.. They are fun to make, you should give it a go.
Now I want to make some candles.. I didn't even know about wood wicks til my husband, of all people, told me about them yesterday...
They have such a nice burn, you’ll love them🕯
The sound they make when they burn is so relaxing. Like a mini crackling fireplace.
@@EllenRuthSoap what's the burn time on these??
Wood wics are so relaxing I love the crackling there really easier to use I have tons of different wics wood is my favorite
Thank you great video I love the look 💕
🥰 thank you
Great video, Ellen! My daughter wants to start candles. I'll have her watch this.
Cheers 👍💕
Thank you, Thank you… Ruth you really make your tutorials very easy to follow… many blessings ❤
You are so welcome🥰
Thank you for the tips, Ellen. I've had a problem getting my wooden wicks to stay lit in the beginning. After several tries, they finally stay lit. I love the common sense behind the soft wood and hard wood combo. I also have seen medium wood wicks. Not sure I want to try them yet. Will definitely do the double wick process. You have saved me a lot of research. Thank you. Like anyone, my time is valuable now that I'm babysitting my precious grandchildren half a day. Thank you a million times over. I want my customers to return.
I'm so glad you found this helpful!❣️
Thanks for the information. I am new to candle making.
It’s so fun🕯❣️
Love the candles without color! Bravo!!
Thank you! 😊
I so love your channel ❤❤ I watch every day. Trying some of your recipes for bath bombs
Thanks for watching💕
I’m the same way this year most of my soy wax candles are just white with a wood wic in a different glass containers I mixed it up this year I did simple candles cuz my soaps and bath bombs are colored a lot I didn’t want everything to be so bright lol to me the best candles are white with a light colored embed on top 😊I got wax melts colored too yours it looks good
Great video Ellen. I love the 'old fashioned look of tin candles too. Another pro tip is I use a pancake cone pourer - it's less messy and makes pouring candles quick and easy. I'll now have to go through all my scents I use for soap making and see if they would be good scents for candles too. Thanks for sharing and happy holidays!
That's a great tip! I just got one of those and haven't used it yet❣️
Thank you! I've been wanting to try wooden wick but have heard it can be tricky.
I prefer smaller candles too.
I just received my order that contained the lemon curd scent and the toasted biscotti and they smell beyond amazing. I highly recommend them.
Thanks for sharing!! I'm so glad you're loving them❣️
They are so cute in the tins! I’m a jar lover myself, but stick to the smaller sizes too! I get bored or just do a 100% beeswax. ❤
love beeswax candles too❣️
I wasn't super interested in making candles up until recently (now that I'm not pumping christmas-y soaps out :) ) but I have these exact same wicks and vessels, I'm going to try, thank you.
Wonderful! Have fun making!
Hey Ellen, I've never seen anyone melt wax this way 😳, I usually see it melting with a double boiler. Interesting, learning something new.
I’m super simple & basic when it comes to candle making 😉❣️
Love your video!!!
There are 2 sizes of wicks? Which one did you use? Half inch or 1 inch wide? Thank you & God bless you and your business 😁
I use the 1/2" ones.
Hi Ellen. Do you ever run into these wicks drowning in the wax? I’ve done cheap & expensive wicks with GW464 with 8-10% FO no color or dyes added. I don’t always get a beautiful flame. I have not tried BeScented wicks.
I haven't had an issue with these wicks.
Hi there. I was looking on your Amazon store and I couldn’t find what scale you use. I’m looking for one that does the exact like 0.75g
The scale I use is under the equipment page😉
Do you do one poor . Do you get a smooth top ?
Yes, just one pour and the tops came out beautifully smooth😉
What size wooden wicks do u use i have a hard time with the wicks
All the measurements and specs are in the link in the description box😉
Where do you get the caution labels?
Amazon, or any place that sells candle supplies..
Only 1 week for cure?!?! I was told 30 days! I'll have to look into this! I purposely quit making them for the holiday season because I wouldn't have enough time to cure them!
I find a week cure is good, but several weeks is okay too...😉
@@EllenRuthSoap well awesome!!! I’ll make more melts & candles for family then!
It depends on the wax. I used coconut apricot creme and cure time is 2 weeks.
@@tauruslovingseminole57 I use 464 Golden Soy Wax. Do you happen to know how long I should be curing it?
