Preparing the Wax

After selecting their desired scents, participants move on to the next step of the Custom Candle Making Experience – preparing the wax.

The instructor guides them through melting the soy wax to the ideal temperature, ensuring it’s not too hot or too cool. Participants then carefully pour the melted wax into their candle jars, filling them to the appropriate level.

They use specialty tools to smooth the surface and create an even, professional-looking finish. With the wax poured, participants eagerly await the next phase – adding the wick and infusing their unique scent blends.

Pouring the Candle

Next, participants carefully pour the melted wax into their prepared candle jars. This step requires steady hands and concentration to prevent spills. The wax must be poured at the right temperature to ensure it sets properly.

Participants then:

1. Add fragrance oils or essential oils to the wax, if desired, for a personalized scent.

2. Top off the jars with the wax, leaving a small space at the top for the wick.

3. Secure the wick in the center of the jar, ensuring it remains upright as the wax cools and hardens.

With the candle wax now set, participants can begin decorating their creations.

Colorful wax chips, beads, glitters, and other embellishments are available to personalize each candle. The instructor guides attendees through various decorating techniques, offering tips and suggestions to make each candle unique.
