Great DiY... I love candles but i'd love to learn how to make my own and sell them...you demonstrated perfectly how to do it. thank you for sharing!!

Fantastic candles, easy and fun to make 💕 thank u very much.

This is the best DIY candle video I have ever seen....nice work.

That's really a good idea.Thank you for this tips.

This is the most helpful video I have come across. Thank you!

The wooden wicks are so cool! They look awesome!

So awesome and crafty!

loved your video! I used to make candles as a child with my mother and sisters.. I am going to do it this weekend with my 10 year old daughter. So fun. You were the first person to caution about the wax being combustible, so thank you for that info!

This was so great! My aunts actually are co founders for a company called: "Willow and honey" and I watched them make candles, but I always wondered how I could actually make them, so thanks!

I love this video! So informative! Thank you so much :)

Wow, very useful. Thank you!

I bought a candle a few years ago that you use to crackle when lit. I used to love it and thought it was a defect maybe because I never heard a candle make that kind of noise until I saw your video! Never knew the wick made noise because it was wooden

I like the last votive you showed, how did you get the stamp look on the white votive?

Nicely done!

Love this video! Where did you get the lid from?

Thanks for sharing :) Looks really easy and would make a great homemade gift :)

where did you get your boxes to put them and also your stickers

Hi there☺ Great video, i just wanted to ask if you use the whole 30ml fragrance for one pound of wax? (450g) Thanks

Thanks for your video. I bought a jar from Kmark but I found out the jar in Not to be used for hot liquids and Not dishwasher or microwave safe when I got back home. Do I Should buy another jar for a candle?

Thank you so much!!

This is really neat! Thank you for sharing :)

Hello! Can shea butter be mixed with soy wax? Can the container which was used in melting soy wax be easily cleaned?

How much of the fragrance do you add to the wax?

Nicely done; easy to follow. Temperatures are C or F?

Hello, I have a question are you selling your product in London. I mean are you delivering this product in London.

My wax melts at 150 degrees or less. I feel like I'm doing something wrong? Do I have to heat my wax up to 185 degrees and then bring the heat down to 150 to add the fragrance?

Where can i get strong scents for candles?

Can you just glue song string for the wick? :) oh and I live in New Zealand as well

Do the soy wax burn faster then the beeswax?

Where do get the design

How do you clean your pots and utensils after?

Hi! great vid can you use food colouring as a substitute for the dye blocks?

Hi, I'm having trouble with my candles, when they have set (24hours) they keep getting a waxy look in some areas, so in parts it looks smooth on the glass then in other areas it looks like there's a waxy oily film in-between the glass and the wax, really hard to explain, wondered if you have come across anything similar? Thank you, Haley (products purchased form Candle Creations)

This may very well be a stupid question but it ok to use my favourite perfume as fragrance?

Great video! How do you clean the wax off of your equipment?

quick question, someone suggest me to use crayon as coloring for the candle. Is it possible?

I'd like too see how to add my own herbs

What other stuff you can use as wick ? What about shoe strings ?

I am also making candle with old candle .

180c or 180f?

what wick is best to use? mine won't stay lit.

I've tried to place an order from your online website but it fails every time. i sent u an email so please reply ASAP

i just put flowers and jewels and sea Schells in mine fun

Very nice where can you get the fragrance from

how long does the dye usually take to melt into the wax? Mine is taking a long time and its at 170 F

what website did you makes your directions?labels?

Cool video. What language was that ? I think I heard a word in English at 1:04 and one at 4:17.

Great video. How much fragrance did you use? 1 oz?

Do you usually use two wooden wicks? I used one wooden wick in my candle, and it wouldn't remain lit, wasn't sure what I was doing wrong.

Great. May I know how many of fragrant oil you added?

Hey! Where can you order the box packaging for the candle?

Great video right there! Loved it. Also, do you think that it would be possible to pull the candles out of the molds and add prints or printed tissues to them. I don't know if you've seen that or not, but I assume you did. :)

what temperature u need to wait before adding essential oil?

Hello GalaxyDreaming How are you? can you lit the candle in the silicone jar? and can you able to use any oil and perfumes oil too? What temperature should I add fragrance oil to my melted wax?

Thank you for the video, please work on the intro music though its super loud as someone who has headphones on. I'm surprised my right ear is not bleeding. Lol (a bit of an exaggeration)

are you using farenheight or celcius?

where do you buy your wax from? is it a wholesale price/cheaper?

Can you use food coloring instead of the colored wax?

Your a New Zealander!!!!!!!!! So am 1 i don't really know nz youtubers

Can you make the candles in champagne glasses?

what editing app do you use?

Do you need to wear a mask when using scented oil?

I had a look at amazon, they sell 5kg wax for 20pounds, but want to charge me over 60pounds for shipping and taxes lol

what shop do you buy the stuff from

How hard is cleanup?

Where can you buy all the stuff?

Do you sell them

where did u get the materials

I just hate to wash it after candle is done. So hard to wash the wax

soy wax itself is really expensive, even in ebay. how do you make candles for under $4 :(

I thought you were boiling coconut, then you said soy wax.

Center not cinter

Don't forget your time, shipping, gas for your stove, proper labels, marketing cost, cost and time for testing if you're going to be selling these, time you spend researching and getting permits, cost of permits, cost of potential mess ups. There's a reason businesses charge more than $4... Online sales will also take like$0.30 from each sale plus like 2% of the sale. If someone bought your product with a stolen card, you'll be out of the profit and the product, plus you'll pay like $15 fee. You have to make sure you make enough for when that happens. If you sell in stores you automatically lose 50% of the sale, so if your margin is anything less than 50% what you're selling it for you're losing money with every sale. Don't forget you'll probably have to offer free shipping to wholesale customers. If you do farmers markets don't forget your time spent there, gas, wear on your vehicle, transit time, prep time, fees for the place, sellers permit .... Stop undervaluing your time and preventing yourself and the rest of us from making a profit! You'll just make yourself and the rest of us broke :/

I made it by myself. I used woodprix woodworking plans for that.

The items in this video are not under $4 at all. All the items you used cost way more than $4 because wax flakes alone go for like $10 and up and then the wicks go for like $5 and up so all that comes out to about $15-$20...

Who came here after the HowToBasic video? Anybody?

Anyone watching this video should check out HowToBasics video it's much more clear

Just wonderful, I been tryin to find out about "making candles in jars" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Cenadoelyn Candle Contemplation - (search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my co-worker got cool success with it.

I have glue gun at home.
