How to make RESIN CANDLES 

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you

Yes you could definitely use tea lights

Aww thank you 😊

Thank you for watching and commenting

They are a perfect gift to giveaway

Hi, what are the moulds called on amazon, thank you x

You could try a plant pot mold or pencil pot that’s what I have and it’s perfect

I think every 90's kid did 😂

@@sherivegasartist what size jars did you use?

Yeah same question which resin to use which is heat resistant

You can use heat resistant resin... Which is also used for making coasters 😁 hope this helps

@@Claytonsoutandabout THERE IS NO SUCH THING.

@@-kohakuma- Actually there is...All brands of resin are different tho. I don't know what other brands are but I use KSResin on my coasters and it has a heat resistance of 475 degrees. For a project such as this I would say the higher the better just to be safe.

its best to use gel wax. I followed all the instructions she has given in the video and both of my resin candles cracked. resin expands when it’s exposed to heat which is dangerous. be safe.

Thank you so much. Have a week filled with positive energies. Regards Lee

Yes you definitely could

Even I want to know

I’m pretty sure I used make art crystal cast

Depends on the brand

I'm still confused. What?

No, it will still be jelly. It won't get hard like resin does.

@@wileycovington4497 I’m trying to decide which one I should go with here. How can it work for shipping my candles to my customers? Would you recommend resin or the Gel?

@@DJLanta I'd say resin. If you ship some place where the temperature will be above 80° you'd only run the risk of the resin mishaping. The jell on the otherhand, I would think would get very soft or even liquidate.

@@wileycovington4497 good point!! I spent all this money on Gel Wax though 😂

@@DJLanta keep those for local sales that you can hand deliver.

i wouldn't trust it !

Jane Taylor - exactly ... was not sure so wanted to clarify

That's what I thought as well, resin will melt if it'll exposed to extreme heat

@@AnyaandKharim hiya, im also a resin artist and no it wouldn't melt, if you use heat resistant resin, then its not an issue at all. it really depends on the type of resin used.

The flame can get to 1000°F

You don’t you leave it in.

I used make art resin casting resin. It’s a Gold Coast brand but I think there casting resin is launching next week

Thank you ❤

candle supplies places should sell small an large jars

@@sherivegasartist Thank you so much! I picked some up from Hobby Lobby this morning.

Use heat resistant resin 😁 hope this helps

@@Claytonsoutandabout theres no such thing. Just use candle gel

@@-kohakuma- Does candle get hard like the resin?? I am confused?

It will melt

it’s best to use gel wax. i followed the instructions in the video & both of my resin candles cracked. resin expands with heat. be safe.

resin isnt flammable when dried. But I still do not think this is a good idea. its a harmful toxin and shouldnt be around flames considering the toxins it can release when being heated

@@simoneh8464 Hmm. Good point. Since the time I asked the question until you answered it now I'm not even in the same stratosphere of projects right lol. So it doesn't matter anymore but I appreciate your response.

That would be a waste of wax. Just considering she only poured wax in the middle of the candle so I’m sure she knows resin is forever and that it won’t be getting melted

No, that IS casting resin. She needs to wear gloves and a respirator though.

Agreed. There are a lot of people out there not being careful. However, I would point out that some resins are VOC free and therefore don’t require you to wear a mask while working with them. I am also fortunate enough to also be able to work outside nearly all year around (and I generally don’t do a pour on a day where the weather isn’t good enough), so fumes aren’t an issue for me. Don’t discount someone and their abilities just because they’re not wearing a mask.

@@JudiHodgkin im not sure about that. Ive done alot of research and taken afew safety classes within the past 2 years I've never heard of a resin that's safe not to wear a mask. I've always been told you're working with an industrial grade chemical that when mixing part A and Part B causes a chemical reaction and you should never ever use resin without gloves, mask and full sleeves to prevent Burns, from getting in your mouth or your eye's also to prevent breathing in toxic fumes. You may have the fortunate ability of being outside but there are many people that are not and they're doing it even in their living room with their kids nearby. I have never read that it's safe to use without a mask. Resin products contain chemicals that are known to cause cancer. Just because you can't smell the chemicals doesn't mean they're not there or that is safe. You should always wear a mask especially due to long-term exposure. You wont get sick right away...

@@JudiHodgkin I own my own business where I work with resin on a regular basis I have to be informed on the products I'm using or that I'm exposing my employee's to. I have searched everywhere and I've never found a resin says it's safe not to where a mask. They may neglect to tell you to wear a mask on the products packaging.. but when you go online and look up the product it says specifically to wear proper PPE.

Thank you on both

I did say that. I got the inspiration from a cup then when I looked it up on Pinterest I saw others had too.

It wasn’t the look I was going for
