 flames; you must melt it in a double boiler,
with water in the bottom of the pan.
Then, prepare the mould with the wick.
Thread the wick through the mould and
make sure that you leave a good few
centimeters sticking out of the hole in the
bottom.
After that, add the scent. If you want a
scented candle, add a few drops of essential
oil to the melted wax. You can use any
essential oil you like, as long as it doesn’t
contain water.
Next step, pour the wax into the mould.
Try and tip the wax into the mould quickly,
all in one go, to minimize spillage and air
bubbles.
Then, release the bubbles and top it up.
Releasing the air bubbles will eventually
make the candle sink, so you will need to
top it up with more melted wax.
Finally, remove it from the mould. After
four or five hours, the candle can be taken
out of its mould.
Your candle is now ready for display.
Remember, you must always leave it for a
day before lighting it.
