How to DIY your own candle

steps: 1. Melt 1 lb of wax(16 oz.) using a double boiler. Heat wax to 185 F. (It is also a good idea to pre-heat the glass jelly jars to about 125 F to avoid "pull away.")

2. Break your preferred dye block in half, add to melted wax, and stir. If you ever see little specks of solid color in the bottom of your candles, try adding the dye block at a slightly higher temperature.

3. Add you preferred fragrance. We're using 1 oz. When adding fragrance, stir well and remove from heat. Do not let fragranced wax continue to heat as the fragrance will evaporate out of the wax.

4. While the wax is cooling, place a wick stick on the bottom of the pretabbed wick and center the wick inside the jelly jar. Repeat this step for your second jar. Note: You will have some leftover wax. You can use it in smaller containers such as tea lights or save it for your next batch.

5. When the wax cools to 135 F, carefully pour the wax evenly into the 2 jars.

6. Place the wick bar with the center peak facing up on top of your jar. Pull wick taut and gently press wick into the opening of the wick bar. This will keep the wick straight and centered while the candle is cooling.

7.For best results, let the candles cool at room temperature overnight.

8.Trim wick to 1/4 in. before lighting (do this each time you light it) and enjoy your candle.

Congratulations, you just made your own beautiful candle!
